<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>Use the time
|
|
adjustment (QTIMADJ) system value to identify the software to use to adjust
|
|
the system clock to keep it synchronized with an external time source. The
|
|
system does not enforce the software specified; it only identifies the software
|
|
to use. This value should be maintained by the time adjustment software and
|
|
is intended as an aid to prevent having multiple time adjustment applications
|
|
conflict with each other. There are no checks performed by the system to verify
|
|
this value or that this software is or is not performing time adjustments.</p>
|
|
<p>Time
|
|
adjustment software should check this system value prior to starting. If this
|
|
system value has an identifier for other time adjustment software, then the
|
|
software being started should notify the user of this potential conflict and
|
|
confirm that this time adjustment software should be started. When there is
|
|
not an identifier associated with this system value, the software should update
|
|
this system value to identify that it is now responsible for adjusting the
|
|
system clock. Time adjustment software should check this system value again
|
|
prior to ending. This system value should be set to the value None (*NONE)
|
|
only if the current value identifies this time adjustment software that is
|
|
ending.</p>
|
|
<p>You can work with time adjustment system value in iSeries Navigator
|
|
by expanding <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Configuration and Service</span> > <span class="uicontrol">System Values</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Date and Time</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Configuration
|
|
and Service</span></span>. To work with the time adjustment function,
|
|
expand <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Time Management</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Time
|
|
Adjustment</span></span>.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Where can I get more information about this system value?</h4><p>To
|
|
learn more, go to the date and time system values overview topic. If you are
|
|
looking for a specific system value or category of system values, try using
|
|
the i5/OS system
|
|
value finder.</p>
|
|
<p>In addition, go to Time management to learn how to use
|
|
the Time Management function of iSeries Navigator to work with this system
|
|
value. The Time Management function allows you to identify a time zone for
|
|
the system to use. You can also specify to use a time maintenance application
|
|
to keep the system time synchronized with an external time source. </p>
