Set the appliance clock manually

If you do not synchronize appliance clock with an NTP server, use the following procedure to set the clock manually.

IMPORTANT:

Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that you set the appliance clock when no other users are logged in and there are no running jobs.

NOTE:

The date and time setting on the active appliance is synchronized with the standby appliance. If the standby appliance is not accessible, you cannot change the date and time settings.
