Changing the Time

[rval80]

This should be an easy task, however, whenever I change the time on a BCM 50, it goes back to being an hour ahead. Customer has tried through the element manager and telset programming. I asked if he had DST set, and he said he did and couldn't change it. Any thoughts?

what release is it.... i seem to remember that Release 1 had this problem and it was fixed with a patch.... what patches do you have loaded ??

It looks like the timezone is incorrect. As for what Gibblett mentions, time lost minutes over a long period of time, not a whole hour in a manner of minutes.

Make sure your BCM is in the right time zone.

I find it works best to set the timezone and program a NTP address. Set it and forget it.

He said he tried to set NTP and it's still having an issue.

Up to date with patches?

Make sure he has it set to "manual", not NTM. Set the timezone then you can change back to NTP.
