1. Log in to the device using an account that has the admin role.
2. Enter global configuration mode using the configure terminal command.
3. Enter switch-attributes followed by the RBridge ID and the chassis-name operand with the new
chassis name.
If you have changed the RBridge ID, be sure to use that ID.
device(config)# switch-attributes 1 chassis-name B8770_prime
4. Record the new name for reference.
5. Enter exit while in global configuration mode to return to privileged EXEC mode.
device(config)# exit
device#
6. To verify the new chassis name, you can run the show running-config switch-attributes rbridge-id
command.
device#
show running-config switch-attributes 1
Setting the date and time
The management module maintains the current date and time inside a battery-backed real-time clock
(RTC) circuit. Date and time are used for logging events. The operation of the device does not depend
on the date and time; a Brocade device with an incorrect date and time value functions properly.
Because the date and time are used for logging, error detection, and troubleshooting, you should set
them correctly.
Time zones
You can set the time zone for a device by using the clock timezone command. The time zone setting
has the following characteristics:
• The time zone setting automatically adjusts for Daylight Savings Time.
• Changing the time zone on a device updates the local time zone setup and is reflected in local time
calculations.
• By default, all devices are in the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) time zone (0,0). If all devices in a
fabric are in one time zone, it is possible for you to keep the time zone setup at the default setting.
• System services that have already started will reflect the time zone changes only after the next
reboot.
• Time zone settings persist across failover for high availability.
• Time zone settings are not affected by Network Time Protocol (NTP) server synchronization.
The following regions are supported: Africa, America, Arctic, Antarctica, Asia, Atlantic, Australia,
Europe, Indian, and Pacific. One of these, along with a city name, establishes the time zone. Refer to
Setting the time zone on page 44.
Time synchronization
To keep the time in your network current, it is recommended that each device has its time synchronized
with at least one external NTP server.
All devices in the fabric maintain the current clock server value in nonvolatile memory. By default, this
value is the local device clock.
