dioddate - get server system time
Contents
Description
dioddate obtains the current system time and zone information from a diod server by reading ctl:date. If
the --set-time option is specified, sets the local system time on the client; otherwise prints the server
time on stdout.
This is a simple way to obtain rough time synchronization before issuing a MUNGE-authenticated attach
request, for example in a bootstrap environment where the "ctl" synthetic file system is exported with
the "noauth" option.
