NAME
synchronize - Causes the DTS entity to synchronize the clock on
the system where the command is entered.
SYNOPSIS
dtscp synchronize [set clock boolean]
ARGUMENTS
set clock boolean
Specifies whether the clock is abruptly set or gradually
adjusted to the computed time. This argument is optional.
The following values are valid:
false The clock is gradually adjusted. This is the
default condition.
true The clock is abruptly set.
DESCRIPTION
The synchronize command causes the DTS clerk or server to solicit
time intervals from servers, compute the intersection of the time
intervals, and adjust the system clock to the midpoint of the
computed time interval. This command overrides the functions of the
synchronization hold down characteristic.
Privilege Required
You must have write permission on the ACL associated with the DTS
entity in order to execute the command.
NOTES
The synchronize command does not execute if the entity is already
synchronizing or is disabled; the entity must be in the on state.
This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and
may not be provided in future releases of DCE.
EXAMPLES
1. The following example shows how to initiate a synchronization
for the entity, followed by a gradual clock adjustment:
dtscp> synchronize
2. The following example shows how to initiate a synchronization
for the entity, followed by an abrupt reset of the clock:
dtscp> synchronize set clock true
