<p>
This program sets the clock (date and time) on 3ware 9xxx series controllers
from the system clock, so that the BBU installation and test dates are
correct.
</p>
<p>
I'm not entirely sure what mechanism was intended to do this originally,
the linux driver only synchronizes time of week whilst the system is
running, and I didn't find any code to do this in the 3ware BIOS.
</p>
<p>
optional argument is the 3ware controller you wist to set the date on
otherwise it assumes /dev/twa0
</p>
<p>
The utility only sets the clock if it's wrong by more than 15 seconds.
