ods-timing(5)		       OpenDNSSEC timinig		   ods-timing(5)

NAME
     ods-timing - OpenDNSSEC timing specification

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/local/etc/opendnssec/conf.xml
     /usr/local/etc/opendnssec/kasp.xml
     /usr/local/etc/opendnssec/zonelist.xml

DESCRIPTION
     The configuration files of OpenDNSSEC need to have timing descriptions, no-
     tably  for periods.  These descriptions follow ISO 8601 with exceptions for
     the duration of a month and a year, as these periods would  be  allowed  to
     vary if ISO 8601 were strictly adhered to.

     Durations	are  represented  by  the format P[n]Y[n]M[n]DT[n]H[n]M[n]S.  In
     these representations, the [n] is replaced by the value  for  each  of  the
     date and time elements that follow the [n]. Leading zeros are not required.
     The  capital  letters P, Y, M, W, D, T, H, M and S are designators for each
     of the date and time elements and are not replaced

     P	    is the duration designator (historically called "period") placed  at
	    the start of the duration representation.

     Y	    is	the  year  designator  that  follows the value for the number of
	    years.

     M	    is the month designator that follows the value  for  the  number  of
	    months.

     W	    is	the  week  designator  that  follows the value for the number of
	    weeks.

     D	    is the day designator that follows the value for the number of days.

     T	    is the time designator that precedes the time components of the rep-
	    resentation.

     H	    is the hour designator that follows the  value  for  the  number  of
	    hours.

     M	    is	the  minute  designator that follows the value for the number of
	    minutes.

     S	    is the second designator that follows the value for  the  number  of
	    seconds.

     For  example,  P3Y6M4DT12H30M5S  represents a duration of "three years, six
     months, four days, twelve hours, thirty minutes, and  five  seconds".  Date
     and  time elements including their designator may be omitted if their value
     is zero, and lower order elements may also be omitted  for  reduced  preci-
     sion.  For example, P23DT23H and P4Y are both acceptable duration represen-
     tations.

EXCEPTION
     A year or month vary  in  duration  depending  on	the  current  date.  For
     OpenDNSSEC, we assume fixed values.

     One month
	    is assumed to be 31 days.

     One year
	    is assumed to be 365 days.

     This exception may or may not change in future releases of OpenDNSSEC.  The
     reason  for making this exception is to avoid complicating this software in
     a way that may not meet any practical need.
