You can use either the administrative console or command-line tools to manage your application servers.
If
you plan to change the system clock, stop all the application servers,
the node agent servers, and the deployment manager server first. Once
you stop the servers, change the system clock, and then restart the
servers. If you change the system clock on one system, you must ensure
the clocks on all systems that communicate with each other and have
WebSphere Application Server installed are synchronized. Otherwise,
you might experience issues, such as security tokens no longer being
valid.

If an application server is running on an operating
system when the time zone setting for the operating system is updated,
the application server updates its internal time stamp. Because of
a delay between the change for the time zone and the change to the
application server internal time stamp, an incorrect time stamp could
be posted for a file if the file is touched during this delay. Starting
with Version 6 Release 1 of the operating system, the delay could
be several seconds. If your application server is on an earlier version
of the operating system, the delay could be as much as an hour. If
the file is part of an application, this incorrect time stamp would
cause the application to stop and then restart because the application
server thinks that the application has been updated.
You can perform the following steps to view and manage an application server from the administrative console.
