I have a question about setting the date on Solaris 11.4 x86.

in Oracle Solaris System Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered ✓

I want to set the date to 2070 year for application software license period testing.
I'm aware of the Y2K38 issue. (Setting the system time or allowing the system time to progress beyond 03:14:07 UTC Jan 19, 2038 may cause undefined behavior in 32-bit programs, the UFS filesystem, and other software that has not been designed to work with values larger than allowed by a signed 32-bit time_t.)

However, we still need to proceed with application software license period testing, taking this issue into account.

The date can be changed until December 31, 2068,
but if I change it to January 1, 2070, it is set to December 28, 1986.

Howdy, Stranger!
