After powering on, you must set up your server using the SC setdate and
setupnetwork commands described in this section.

■ “To Configure Network Parameters” on page 45

If your time zone area is using daylight or summer time, this is set automatically.
● Set the date, time, and time zone for the server by using the setdate command at
the LOM prompt.

using the offset from Greenwich mean time (GMT), date, and time to Tuesday, April

If Solaris software is running, use the Solaris date command instead.
For more information on the setdate command, see the Sun Fire Entry-Level
