Re: Dell C410X BMC setting date and time

Hi Paul,

The SEL time get and set commands are mandatory for compliant IPMI implementations and the C410X BMC does indeed support them per support.dell.com/.../BMC.pdf pages 39-40. Therefore you can use an IPMI client such as ipmitool to configure those settings. For example:

$ ipmitool sel time set "9/27/2012 18:31:22"

Alternatively, ipmitool will use the client machine's current time when you specify "now" for the time, like so:

$ ipmitool sel time set now

You can conduct these remotely (UDP port 632) by specifying the BMC's IP address and credentials:

$ ipmitool -H 10.1.2.3 -U root -P secret sel time set now

Let us know how it goes and if you need further assistance. Thanks!
