This section describes the modifications made to some of the
NAC 2.5 fields, which provide information about the time or
year. These fields appear during the installation or upgrade
procedure.
During a NAC software installation or upgrade, the system
occasionally displays the amount of time required to complete a
task. When the system formats the hard disk drive and creates
file systems, it indicates that the task could take about 30
minutes. In NAC 2.5, the system message now indicates that the
task could take between 30 to 60 minutes.
The message appears as follows:
***> Formatting root file system's disk drive
(TIME)
This will take about 30 to 60 minutes...
This message appears in the Network Administration Center
(NAC) Installation Guide (NTP 553-4011-110), "New software
installations" chapter, page 6-12. It also appears in the
"Software reinstallations and upgrades" chapter, page 8-13.
Prior to NAC 2.5, you entered the time as Eastern Standard
Time (EST) during an installation or upgrade procedure. In
NAC 2.5, you enter the local time instead of the EST. The
reference to EST no longer appears on the installation and
upgrade screens.
Prior to NAC 2.5, you entered the year in "yy" format during an
installation or upgrade procedure. In NAC 2.5, you enter the
year in "yyyy" format.
