Hi Guys..
I located this on the forum but wasnt aware you needed to stop TSE to do this. Can anybody verify this is required?
thank you!
Changing time/date is purely Linux related. 'date' is a command in Linux that displays or changes date and time. Changing date/time is only permitted when logging on as 'root' user. It is not possible to change date/time when logging on as 'mduser' user. Changing date/time in the wrong way while telephony server is running results in worst case, that linux operating system freezes.
Command syntax example 'date' will print current time/date.
- Example, to set the current time/date to July 22, 11:44pm, type
- date 07221144 (note that the time is given in 24 hour notation)
- If you wanted to change the year to 2004 as well, you could type: date 072211442004
- To set the seconds as well, type: date 072211442004.30
Here is the correct procedure to change time/date.
1. View Telephony Server status by command: /etc/init.d/eri_sn status
2. Stop Telephony Server by command: /etc/init.d/eri_sn stop
3. Check/Set the hardware clock to 'UTC' in the time zone menu in Yast.
4. Check/Set set correct time zone in the time zone menu in Yast.
5. Check/Set time/date with command: date
6. Synchronize hardware clock with system clock with command: hwclock --systohc
7. Reboot server with command: reboot
