Title: Odd problem NTP service Post by: tommiepit on Wednesday 03 February 2010, 03:26:49 am Dear community,
2 things. 1) My Endian NTP service is not working properly. After 24 hours the internal clock is about 30 minutes behind. After last weekend it was 3 hours behind. I've already setup the ntp server pool and I tried leaving it as it is. Only thing that seems to work is just to manually sync time every day. Whilest writing this after a sync, it is already 3 minutes behind... ! :) 2) Endian is hard on memory, but not matter how much memory I grant it (vmware ESXi VM), it ends up swapping data. I can ofcourse turn of swapping, however, this does not seem reasonable. root@vuurmuur:~ # uname -a Linux vuurmuur.kantoor.searchco.local 2.6.22.19-72.e18 #1 SMP Thu May 14 10:29:20 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Title: Re: Odd problem NTP service Post by: jantram on Wednesday 31 March 2010, 04:59:00 am I have had lots and lots of troubles with various VMware client machines with the emulated real-time-clock hardware. I basicly setup an NTP locally and set the VM's to set every 5 mins, even though they were drifting 15 mins+ /hr. I don't think your issue is Endian related. Try another linux machine on your vm host and see if you get the same drifting.
