Use the set-time command to set the system date and time. The time entered should be accurate for the time zone configured for the system. The system converts the local time to UTC before saving to the system clock which is always set to UTC. If SNTP or NTP is enabled (no shutdown), this command cannot be used. The set-time command does not take into account any daylight saving offset if defined.
