change(8dts)

Synopsis

dtscp change epoch integer [time absolute-time]

Options

epoch integer
Specifies the new epoch number (0255). This argument is required.

time absolute-time
Specifies a clock setting for the new epoch. If you do not supply this argument and a value, the server uses the current clock time with an unspecified inaccuracy, and initiates a synchronization. This argument is optional.

Description
The change command sets the time and changes the epoch of the DTS server on which it is entered. Use this command to isolate a server from the rest of the servers in the network before changing the time.

Privileges Required
You must have w (write) permission on the ACL associated with the DTS entity to execute the command.

Notes
This command is valid only for servers. The new epoch number you specify must be different from the current epoch number.

This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

Examples

1. The following example shows how to change the epoch number:

dtscp> change epoch 1

2. The following example shows how to change the epoch number and time:

dtscp> change epoch 1 time 1990-11-30-10:58:00.000-05:00I0.000
