Restrictions:
  • Micro Focus does not recommend use of this tunable in an Enterprise Server environment.
  • This tunable is supported for native COBOL only.

Syntax:

>>-----set current_hour=---integer-------------><

Parameters:

integer A value from 0 - 23 indicating the required hour of the day. The value you specify is returned when you use the ACCEPT identifier FROM TIME syntax or the CURRENT-DATE intrinsic function

Comments:

If the timewarp_dynamic tunable is set to TRUE, the hour value specified is treated as the hour at which the clock is started, and will change every 60 minutes.
