<span id="time"></span><h1>Set system time<a class="headerlink" href="#set-system-time" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>This guide describes how to reset the time in your Clear Linux* OS system when
the default <abbr title="Network Time Protocol">NTP</abbr> servers cannot be reached.</p>
<p>Clear Linux OS uses the <cite>systemd-timesyncd.service</cite> daemon to synchronize time.</p>
<ol class="arabic">
<li><p>Install the <strong class="command">sysadmin-basic</strong> bundle.</p>
<div class="highlight-bash notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>sudo<span class="w"> </span>swupd<span class="w"> </span>bundle-add<span class="w"> </span>sysadmin-basic

<li><p>Set your time zone. This example uses Los Angeles.</p>

<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>To see a list of time zones, use the command:
<strong class="command">timedatectl list-timezones | grep &lt;locale&gt;</strong></p>

</li>
<li><p>Create a <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/etc/systemd/</span></code> directory.</p>

</pre></div>
</div>
</li>
<li><p>Create a new file named <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf</span></code> and enter the
following text.</p>
<div class="highlight-console notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="go">[Time]</span>

<span class="go">FallbackNTP=&lt;backup server 1&gt; &lt;backup server 2&gt;</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
</li>
<li><p>Enable the <cite>systemd-timesyncd</cite> service.</p>
<div class="highlight-bash notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>sudo<span class="w"> </span>timedatectl<span class="w"> </span>set-ntp<span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">true</span>

</ol>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>To check the service status, use the <strong class="command">timedatectl status</strong> command.</p>
<p>To restart the <cite>timesyncd</cite> daemon, enter <strong class="command">systemctl restart
systemd-timesyncd</strong> into your terminal emulator.</p>
