I've received 5 answers so far as follows:
1 said I could go ahead and use the date command in multi-user mode, as
long as I did it as root.
1 said I could go ahead and use the date command in multi-user mode, as
root, as long as I didn't move the date (or time?) backwards because
Oracle wouldn't like it. (I forgot to mention we are running Oracle on
this cluster)
1 said they weren't sure about cluster systems, but they were told to
never change the date in multi-user mode in stand-alone systems.
2 recommended using NTP (which isn't set up for reasons I won't go into
here).

Subject: Setting the date in multi-user mode
One of our Tru64 5.1B-3 clusters has the system time that is 10 minutes
off. The man pages state that the date using the "date" command in
multi-user mode. Is there a way to change the date in multi-user mode?
