Warning: If the CONVERSANT cannot be shut down, this process can be done in normal working mode but is not suggested. Skip processes (A) and (D) below to set time only.
*** NOTE: ON AN Enhanced Service Center (ESC) THIS MUST NOT BE DONE DURING THE FIRST 10 MINUTES OF ANY HOUR TO MAKE SURE THAT THE SYSTEM REPORTS WILL CONFIGURE PROPERLY.
(A) CHANGING THE SYSTEM TO SINGLE-USER MODE
1. Log in to the CONVERSANT as 'root' at the system console
2. Once completely logged in, type 'stop_vs'. This will stop the voice system and put the system into run level 2 (on a CONVERSANT 7 it will be run level 3)
3. Confirm by typing 'who -r' -- this will display the current run level
4. Then type 'shutdown -i1 -g0 -y' & press enter. Messages on the screen will indicate the new run level (1) and end with 'Change to state 1 has been completed.' Then a new 'Console Login:' will appear
5. Go to step (B)
(B) CHANGING THE SYSTEM DATE & TIME
1. Log in to the CONVERSANT as 'root'
2. Once logged in, type 'sysadm'
3. On the '1 UNIX System V Administration' menu, highlight 'system_setup' & press enter
4. On the '2 System Name, Date Time and Initial Password Setup' menu, highlight 'datetime' & press enter
5. On the '3 Display and Set System Date and Time' menu, highlight 'set' & press enter
6. On the '4 Set System Date and Time Information' screen, change the time, verify all the other information & make sure that the 'Is daylight savings time in effect?:' field is set to 'no'
7. Press the F3 (SAVE) key to save the changes. You will see 'Working' in the upper right corner of the screen.
8. Then you will see '5 Setting System Date and Time Information' with a message indicating the successful completion of the task by the UNIX system.
The datetime task has successfully changed the system date and time information. You may need to log out and log in again to see any time zone changes. The change will be reflected in all new processes invoked after this time.
The Date and Time have been set to November 4, 2007 02:00 AM Mountain.
The cron daemon has been restarted to pick up the new time and/or timezone.

10. Press F7 (CMD-MENU), highlight 'exit' & press enter
11. At the Unix prompt type 'vs/bin/setclk' & press enter
(C) TO CHECK TIME IN THE SYSTEM
1. To check the current date & time, type 'date' at the Unix prompt
2. To see a display of the old & new settings at the time of the change, type 'who -t' at the Unix prompt
(D) RESTART THE CONVERSANT
1. At the Unix prompt type 'shutdown -i6 -g0 -y'. This will bring the CONVERSANT down to run level 0 & then back up to run level 4
