10.0;calendar (set system calendar), revision 1.0, 88/01/21
calendar (set system calendar) -- Set system calendar clock.
usage:  calendar



DESCRIPTION
     Use calendar to set or reset the calendar clock in a node. You can also
     use it to update the last valid time known to the system, which is stored
     on the boot volume. Normally, the clock is set at the factory, and there
     is no need to reset it. You should take care if you set the clock
     backwards in time, since duplicate unique identifiers (UIDs) may be
     generated, resulting in the loss of files.  For information on changing
     the timezone, see the tz (timezone) command description.

     Note that calendar works only on unmounted volumes, so you must invoke it
     from the Mnemonic Debugger in order to set the clock on the boot volume.

     calendar prompts for all required arguments and options.
