Advanced Configuration and Troubleshooting

An administrator receives an error stating that the CVMs in the cluster are not synchronizing with any NTP servers. Investigation finds the following:

  • The NTP servers are configured in Prism.
  • The time on every CVM is identical.
  • Both the CVMs and AHV hosts use the UTC time zone.

Which two steps can be used to troubleshoot this issue?

Choose two
  • A Confirm that the NTP servers are reachable from the CVMs.
  • B Restart genesis on all CVMs.
  • C On a CVM. run the command a Hash ntpq -pn.
  • D Restart the chronos service on all CVMs.
Explanation

NTP synchronization requires the configured NTP servers to be reachable and to respond to NTP requests from the CVMs. The ntpq -pn command displays NTP peer associations and their synchronization state, allowing the administrator to identify whether a configured server is reachable and selected as a valid time source.
