Change Time Zone Settings on the Compute Servers

To change the time zone setting on a compute server:

1. Log in as the root user on the compute server.
2. Shut down Oracle Clusterware Services:

   # GI/bin/crsctl stop crs
   

3. Copy the clock file from one of the storage servers:

   # scp root@storage_cell:/etc/sysconfig/clock /etc/sysconfig/clock
   

4. Disable Cluster Ready Services (CRS):

   # GI/bin/crsctl disable crs
   

   This step prevents Cluster Ready Services (CRS) from restarting automatically when you restart the server.

5. Restart the compute server.
6. Use the date command verify the change for the time zone.
7. Enable CRS:

   # GI/bin/crsctl enable crs
   

   This step restores CRS to its previous configuration setting.

8. Start CRS:

   # GI/bin/crsctl start crs
