The TD (Time and Date) command displays the time, day, date, and time zone being used by the system.

Syntax

Explanation

The TD command displays the time, day, date, and time zone being used by the system. The date is displayed both as a calendar date and a Julian date. The form yyyyddd is used for the Julian date, indicating the year yyyy and day of the year ddd. The time is displayed in 24-hour format in digits denoting hours, minutes, and seconds, respectively. The time zone is set using the TR (Time Reset) command.

Clock correction information is displayed if the system is running with Time Synchronization software. For more information, refer to the TCP/IP Distributed Systems Services Operations Guide.

<timezone>

This optional entry enables you to display the time and date when your location is in a different timezone than the host. The <timezone> is any of the character string entries described in the TIMEZONE handling portion of the TR (Time Reset) command.
