<h1 class="topictitle1">System time is off more than 2 hours</h1>
<div><div class="section"><p><strong>Problem</strong></p>
<p>If the system time is off more than 2 hours,
one or more of the following conditions might exist:</p>
<ul><li>The time zone automatically adjusted the system time one hour for DST
and the system time was adjusted manually one hour for DST. Therefore, the
system time adjusted a total of 2 hours for DST rather than one hour.</li>
<li>The time zone was set incorrectly during the installation of i5/OS™ due to
any of the following conditions: <ul><li>The offset used to determine the time zone was wrong.</li>
<li>The wrong time zone was selected.</li>
<li>The offset specified in the time zone description was incorrect.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>If you attempt to make a time adjustment for more than 2 hours, you
will receive an error message stating that you cannot make an adjustment that
is greater than 2 hours.</p>
<p><strong>Recovery steps</strong></p>
<p>To recover from
this situation, you can perform one of two different methods. You can manually
change the time of day system value or you can use multiple time adjustments
until the desired time value is reached. The method you use to change the
time of day depends on how quickly the system time needs to be fixed.</p>
<p>If
you need to change the system time immediately, you must manually change the
time of day system value. If you do not need to change the system time immediately,
you can use multiple time adjustments to gradually reach the desired time
value. The adjustment method requires multiple time adjustments because the
maximum time adjustment allowed is 2 hours and your system time is off more
than 2 hours. For more information about the implications of manually changing
the system time versus using a time adjustment, see Time adjustment.</p>
<p>Before
changing the system time using either method, complete the following steps:</p>
</div>
<ol><li><span>Verify the time zone properties.</span></li>
<li><span>Verify the time system values.</span></li>
</ol>
<div class="section"><p>After you determine which method to use to change your system time,
see Update system time for step-by-step instructions on how to either manually
change the system time or how to use the time adjustment function.</p>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If
you are making an adjustment using the time adjustment function, you will
need to make multiple time adjustments until the desired time is reached.</div>
