57678273bfa80d2feb4fa17ac25818f277f5c684cilix<p><span><strong class="command">dnssec-settime</strong></span>
57678273bfa80d2feb4fa17ac25818f277f5c684cilix reads a DNSSEC private key file and sets the key timing metadata
57678273bfa80d2feb4fa17ac25818f277f5c684cilix as specified by the <code class="option">-P</code>, <code class="option">-A</code>,
d4200d96d8369f38efb722b04869b360388eeb80cilix <code class="option">-R</code>, <code class="option">-I</code>, and <code class="option">-D</code>
d4200d96d8369f38efb722b04869b360388eeb80cilix options. The metadata can then be used by
d4200d96d8369f38efb722b04869b360388eeb80cilix <span><strong class="command">dnssec-signzone</strong></span> or other signing software to
57678273bfa80d2feb4fa17ac25818f277f5c684cilix determine when a key is to be published, whether it should be
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix used for signing a zone, etc.
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix </p>
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix<p>
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix If none of these options is set on the command line,
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix then <span><strong class="command">dnssec-settime</strong></span> simply prints the key timing
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix metadata already stored in the key.
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix </p>
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix<p>
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix When key metadata fields are changed, both files of a key
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix pair (<code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key</code> and
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix <code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private</code>) are regenerated.
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix Metadata fields are stored in the private file. A human-readable
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix description of the metadata is also placed in comments in the key
044d712d4d03f8354962d54e47cfac2346a69ccccilix file.

<a name="id2610544"></a><h2>TIMING OPTIONS</h2>
<p>
Dates can be expressed in the format YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
If the argument begins with a '+' or '-', it is interpreted as
an offset from the present time. For convenience, if such an offset
is followed by one of the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi',
then the offset is computed in years (defined as 365 24-hour days,
ignoring leap years), months (defined as 30 24-hour days), weeks,
days, hours, or minutes, respectively. Without a suffix, the offset
is computed in seconds. To unset a date, use 'none'.
</p>
<div class="variablelist"><dl>
<dt><span class="term">-P <em class="replaceable"><code>date/offset</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Sets the date on which a key is to be published to the zone.

not be used to sign it.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-A <em class="replaceable"><code>date/offset</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Sets the date on which the key is to be activated. After that
date, the key will be included and the zone and used to sign
it.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-R <em class="replaceable"><code>date/offset</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Sets the date on which the key is to be revoked. After that

in the zone and will be used to sign it.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-I <em class="replaceable"><code>date/offset</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Sets the date on which the key is to be retired. After that

<dt><span class="term">-D <em class="replaceable"><code>date/offset</code></em></span></dt>

Sets the date on which the key is to be deleted. After that
