<p>It doesn't seem to be implemented in libvirt's XML.</p>
<p>You can still try and hack it though:</p>
<domain type='kvm'
xmlns:qemu='<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0">http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0</a>'><br>
<qemu:commandline><br>
<qemu:arg value='-rtc base="xxx"'/><br>
</qemu:commandline><br>

<p>It will mark this domain "tainted" in libvirt's log.<br>

date/time for guest kvm</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi there,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>is there a way to set a guest to start with a specific date
and time. (e.g. when guest boots, starting guest time should
always be (2017-02-05T12:00:00)).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've tried something like this in my kvm domain:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div> <clock offset='variable' adjustment='-86400'
basis='localtime'></div>
<div> <timer name='rtc' tickpolicy='delay'
track='guest'/></div>
<div> <timer name='pit' tickpolicy='delay'/></div>
<div> <timer name='hpet' present='no'/></div>
<div> </clock></div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However, i can't insert a specific date and time statement
(like starting kvm with -rtc base="2017-02-05T12:00:00").</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The date/time must be set before starting the vm and must
always be the same.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Matt</div>
