How do I check the current time and date in IDRAC?

Im checking some events in the log but I dont know if they happened right now or years ago because I dont know the current time and date set in this R420. How can I check the current time and date of my system by the IDRAC (so I dont need to reboot the server to access its bios)?

You could check the date for your current login event.  On Systems with a CMC your can execute "racadm getractime" to get the current time. Not sure if it works on normal system or is there a different command.

Simple test... works great!:

C:\>racadm -r remote-esx-node-99 -u root -p **** getractime
