  Bootstrap prompts for date/time? 
 The Question is:
 
What is the Parameter to stop the computer from asking for date and time
upon reboot?
 
 
 The Answer is:
 
  There are several reasons why the system prompts for the time on a
  system reboot.  The first and most common cases involve the settings
  of the system parameters TIMEPROMPTWAIT and/or SETTIME.  Somewhat more
  rare cases involve failures of the battery in the console hardware.
 
  From HELP PARAMETERS TIMEPROMPTWAIT in SYSGEN (on OpenVMS VAX) or
  SYS_PARAMETERS TIMEPROMPTWAIT (on OpenVMS Alpha):
 
 
       o  If TIMEPROMPTWAIT is 0, no prompt or wait occurs; the system
          boots immediately, using the time of the last boot as the
          system time.
 
  The equivilent information for SETTIME:
 
       SETTIME enables (1)  or disables (0) solicitation of the time of
       day each time the system is booted. This parameter should usually
       be off (0), so that the system sets the time of day at boot time
       to the value of the processor time-of-day register. You can reset
       the time after the system is up with the DCL command SET TIME
       (see the OpenVMS DCL Dictionary).
 
  If the console hardware has failed, resolution generally requires
  replacing the Dallas watch chip or the console NiCd battery -- the
  particular hardware used depends on the particular VAX or Alpha system
  involved.
