The TIMED daemon is used to provide the time in response to UDP requests. TIMED gives the time in seconds since midnight January 1, 1900. You can start TIMED from the z/OS® shell or as a started procedure.
Requirement: TCP/IP must be started prior to starting TIMED.
Guideline: TIMED is different from the TIME daemon available as an internal daemon of INETD. INETD cannot be used to start and perform as a listener for TIMED.
