Advanced Playlisting 67To configure the Image Server to use your time zone, use the –c option. Specify thedirectory name and the time zone file, both of which are case-sensitive. For instance, to set thetime zone to Eastern time, enter the following:zone –c US/EasternNote that there are other ways to achieve the same result. For the Eastern time zone case, one canalso enter:zone –c America/New_YorkStart NTP ServiceFrom a terminal window, enter:startntpAt this point, the system time as indicated by the “date” command should be correct, but it may bedifferent from the time reported in the lower right corner of the Image Server GUI. To update theGUI time, restart the system using the Start/Shutdown/Full-Restart option in the lower left corner ofthe GUI.Verify Operation of NTP ServiceFrom a terminal window, enter:/usr/sbin/ntpdate –q pool.ntp.orgThis will query the given NTP server, in this example pool.ntp.org, and report the differencebetween the time-protocol server and the ImageServer. For instance:server 207.145.113.114, stratum 1, offset 0.009022, delay 0.059115 Dec 12:25:27 ntpdate[4903]: adjust time server 207.145.113.114 offset 0.009022 secIf all is well, the reported offset will be a fraction of a second.Stopping NTP serviceWhen the time is set manually from the GUI Configure/Set Date-Time dialog, the NTPprocess is terminated.
