View 1 RepliesI am trying to rename multiple files in a directory and add the Date/Time stamp to the file name.
Example:
file1.txt
file2.txt
file3.txt
Renamed to
2009_02_01_21.txt
2009_02_02_21.txt
2009_02_03_21.txt
I am able to accomplish this using this command:
mv file1.txt "`date +%Y_%m%d_%H`".txt
But I want to automate this task, I have many files to process and I dont want to do them one by one.
I already tried this but it does not work
mv *.txt "`date +%Y_%m%d_%H`".txt
I want to change my time zone (not time, but the time zone). Just as an experiment.
I am GMT.
I go to /etc/timezone and enter US/Eastern.
I know that Gmail uses JavaScript to check the computers time zone (not the time). Therefore if I sent an e-mail from Gmail to myself at Gmail it should show the new time.
But it does not. It shows my GMT. Obviously Eastern time is behind GMT.
(The same happens if I just change the time using date -u). Gmail shows the GMT rather than the time a certain number of hours behind the GMT.
How can I set the time zone on my computer so that webmail like Gmail recognises the new time zone?
since the upgrade tzdata (2011c-0ubuntu0.10.04) to 2011d-0ubuntu0.10.04which I installed on Saturday, ntp updates seem to put me in GMT time.I've switched to manual time settings, as it does horrific things to my mythtv database!I'm not sure if its the upgrade, or the ntp time servers. My timezone is Australia/Tasmania.

Is there a way to specify a timezone for a specific job in the crontab file? If so what would be the format for Sydney so it follows the daylight savings time changes? Right now I will just change the cron schedule when Sydney goes on and off DST.

I entered "London" but the page reverted back to its probable default -5GMT.
I'm looking for a function (prefer POSIX, but Linux specific would do if it has to) to get the current timezone offset. For my location, eastern USA, that should be -14400 when daylight time is in effect, and -18000 otherwise.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a server which time zone is in GMT format. I have a user which is also get time zone variable in GMT. But I want to run script which will start from crontab in EST time zone. For that I�m not suppose to give extra entry in crontab. May be it would be in script.
How can I achieve this?
I have a server running ArchLinux; I recently installed openntpd on it. Since I started paying closer attention to the clock, I started noticing other things; specifically when I run the "date" command, it's returned in PST when it should be "EST":
[spice@sandbox ~]$ date
Sat Mar 6 00:17:42 PST 2010
I have set the hwclock to localtime, configured "HARDWARECLOCK" to "localtime" in rc.conf, and chosen two different (but accurate) values for TIMEZONE in rc.conf:
[spice@sandbox ~]$ hwclock
Sat 06 Mar 2010 03:17:38 AM PST -0.922220 seconds
[spice@sandbox ~]$ cat /etc/rc.conf | grep TIMEZONE
TIMEZONE="US/Eastern"
[spice@sandbox ~]$ cat /etc/rc.conf | grep HARDWARE
HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
However, as you can see, "hwclock" and "date" both say they're showing PST, although hwclock is showing the time in EST. I am not sure whether this was the case before installing openntpd. Is there another place where I should be setting the time zone?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAttempting to install 10.04... I can get to the "Where are you?" screen, then the little circular "please wait" cursor spins forever and ever.
Here are a few things I've tried, with no success:Leaving it alone for hours, hoping it was just taking a really long time. No Dice. Unplugging any hardware that might be causing a problem, including the network card. No dice. Burning it to CD, DVD, and booting from a USB key. No dice. Trying every combination of kernel options I could find in the forums, and setting most combinations found in the "more options" menu in the boot screen. No dice. Booting into the live environment, then installing from there (instead of just choosing "install" directly). No Dice. Booting both from the 32-bit and 64-bit ISOs (my machine is 64-bit)
Note: I have not tried just upgrading from my 9.10 install, and I will not try this. If I can't get a live CD to boot, there's no way I would voluntarily hose my current system by upgrading.
Also note: I checked the MD5 of the ISO, and did the "check the disk for defects" menu option as well. Everything checks out fine.
I frequently travel between San Diego and Boston. I am able to add "Locations" to Gnome's Clock applet, which seems like it should take care of time zone information (see attached screenshot). However, I can't figure out how to set one (or the other) as my current location so that it will update my time zone information.

I found a way to change the kernel time zone with the following command
$ ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/* /etc/localtime
After I tried it and checked the kernel time zone, but it didn't changed.
It seemed to be applied after rebooting.
Is there any way to change the kernel time zone "dynamically" with the
console command, not with the GUI environment?

I need some assistance with my Ubuntu server setup.
I use a Free BSD Linux server at work that I SSH to. When I telnet to the server I see the following:
[8:23am] myhost:/home/pmiglia]
I like that I see the time and path just like that.
Now I have been trying for DAYS to get my Linux server to display with the time but with no luck
FYI, new users and old users do not display like this when they SSH, only me as far as I can tell.
One of my scripts generated an output like this:
0:0:35
0:0:36
0:0:28
0:0:37
0:0:43
0:1:2
This is actually in a time format(hh:mm:ss) and how do i add all the values and get the sum in seconds . the output should be in seconds like total number of seconds : 241 secs
When I installed CentOS, I forgot to modify the settings of Network Time Protocol. I need to do the following:
1. Enable Network Time Protocol.
2. Add a new ntp server to the list.
How I can do this after the installation. Is there an utility to handle this? or do I need to modify any files manually?
how graphs can be plotted on a web interface on real time ? I have a web interface coded in PHP mostly and for graphs I have jpgraphs. But the job needs the graphs to be real time not static. As of now there's a server side program that writes onto a csv file. I read data from the file and plot it using jpgraph when the page loads. Is there anyway I can code real-time dynamic graphs on a web interface ?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am using RHEL6 on a server with 3 interfaces.
eth0 is connecting via a Cisco switch to the outer world and eth1 and eth2 to internal networks.
eth1 and eth2 are working without problems all the time, however I have the following incident with eth0: although it is RUNNING, and after it works for some time (like some hours), it then becomes incapable of sending/receiving traffic. Here are more details, after the interface exits the RUNNING state:
[root@mgt ~]# ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr E4:1F:13:6C:87:74
inet addr:9.162.91.26 Bcast:9.162.91.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::e61f:13ff:fe6c:8774/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
[Code]....
I am wondering whether there this is because there is not traffic for some time and so the interface goes to idle. Is there any parameter I can tweak in RHEL6 to force the interface to remain RUNNING even in the absence of traffic (although I would be expecting that some 802.1 packets would be periodically flowing from the switch to the interface)?
I have set 'ONBOOT=no' in interface script '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:2' but my interface bring up at boot time, what is the problem , I have checked it 3 or 4 diff os/machine but the same issue. Can anyone please help me to disable virtual IP's at boot time that network script make it up every boot time.
