Set the time
############
In |CL|, it is not possible to set the time manually, via `timedatectl`
nor `RTC` mode. |CLOSIA| instead uses the `systemd-timesyncd.service` daemon
to synchronize time.
This section provides instructions to reset the time in your |CL| system when
the default network time protocol (NTP) servers cannot be reached. The default
NTP servers are configured as
time1.google.com, time2.google.com, time3.google.com, and time4.google.com.
#. Install the `sysadmin-basic` bundle:
.. code-block:: console
swupd bundle-add sysadmin-basic
#. Set your timezone (this example uses Los Angeles).
.. code-block:: console
timedatectl set-timezone America/Los_Angeles
.. note::
To see a list of timezones, enter:
`timedatectl list-timezones | grep <locale>`
#. Create a `/etc/systemd/` directory.
.. code-block:: console
mkdir -p /etc/systemd/
#. Create a new file named :file:`/etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf` and enter the
following:
.. code-block:: .conf
[Time]
NTP=<Preferred Server>
FallbackNTP=<backup server 1> <backup server 2>
#. Enable the `systemd-timesyncd` service.
.. code-block:: console
timedatectl set-ntp true
.. note::
Use the :command:`timedatectl status` command to check the service status.
To restart the `timesyncd` daemon, enter :command:`systemctl restart systemd-timesyncd`
into your terminal emulator.
