Setup NTP

4 System Configuration

5 Setup NTP

Description

Enter command option 5 from the System Configuration menu to setup NTP.

All the nodes in a multi-cluster must synchronize to the same NTP server. Run the command NTP/Timezone info to verify if all the nodes are synchronized with the same NTP server. To run the NTP/Timezone info, enter command option 2 from the show configuration menu.

You also have an option to authenticate the NTP server by using the secure key.

If you are using iLO when configuring NTP servers and require the secure key to authenticate the NTP server, you must either use the WebUI or CLI to copy the NTP server key. The copy and paste operation is not supported on the iLO console. Logon to the CLI with iLO credentials and use the VSP command to get the secure key.
If the Setup NTP command is executed after the cluster is configured, then the modified details of NTP server is updated to the cluster. If cluster is not configured, then the modified NTP server details is updated only to the node.
