If a Linux OS is used and the hardware clock has been configured as UTC
(Universal Time, Coordinated) in the OS, the BMC local time may not be
mapped correctly.
▶ After replacing the system board, ask the system administrator whether the
RTC or UTC time standard is to be used as system time.
If the system time (RTC) is set to UTC, the SEL (System Event Log)
time stamps may differ from the local time.
▶ Enter the BIOS.
▶ Select the Main menu.
▶ Under System Time and System Date specify the correct time and date.
By default, the system time set in the BIOS is RTC (Real Time Clock)
local time. If your IT infrastructure relies on universally accepted time
standards, set the System Time to UTC (Universal Time,
Coordinated) instead. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) can be
considered equivalent to UTC.
▶ Save your changes and exit the BIOS.
For more information on how to access the BIOS and modify settings,
see the corresponding BIOS Setup Utility reference manual.
