102-500 Exam - Question 71


FILL BLANK -

Which command is used to sync the hardware clock to the system clock? (Specify only the command without any path or parameters.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer:

The command that is used to sync the hardware clock to the system clock is 'hwclock'. This command adjusts the hardware clock (RTC) settings according to the current system time. Although there are specific parameters that can be used with 'hwclock' for specific operations, the question specifically asks for the command without any path or parameters, thus 'hwclock' is the appropriate and minimal answer.
