Functions of the System Management Console Time synchronization between SMC and partitions
If the time of the System Management Console is more than 1000 seonds ahead of or
behind the time of a partition the time cannot be automatically synchronized via NTP (start
of the NTP daemon of the partitions or of the NTP client is suppressed). In this case the
times must be synchronized manually.
Information on manual time synchronization is provided in the manual
Software User's Guide
NTP client (partitions)
The partitions operate as NTP clients. When installing Solaris using the partition_setup
command (parameter -n), the file /etc/inet/ntp.conf was generated with the following
contents:
server XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX # IP address of the system management console
server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 9
enable auth monitor
driftfile /var/ntp/ntp.drift
statsdir /var/ntp/ntpstats/
filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enable
filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable
filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable
NTP diagnostic commands (for the SMC and the partitions)
ntpq and xntpdc
The ntpq and xntpdc commands supply information on the current status of the NTP
daemon on the home server or on another server in the network. Multiple status changes
and commands can also be triggered.
Sample call
ntpq -p [NTP-server]
Here NTP-server designates the server for which the information is to be output. A list of
the reference sources (peers) used by the specified server is output in tabular form together
with the status information for the individual peers in tabular form (see the following
example):
root@fernandoADM # ntpq -p
