Setting Clock Synchronization (BUI)
Changing services properties is documented in “Setting Service Properties
(BUI)” on page 230 and “Setting Service Properties (CLI)” on page 231. The CLI
property names are shorter versions of those listed above.
TABLE 81
IPMP Logs
Log Description
network-initial:default Logs the network configuration process
NTP Configuration
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) service can be used to keep the appliance clock accurate.
This is important for recording accurate timestamps in the filesystem, and for protocol
authentication. The appliance records times using the UTC timezone. The times that are
displayed in the BUI use the timezone offset of your browser.
To the right of the BUI screen are times from both the appliance (Server Time) and your
browser (Client Time). If the NTP service is not online, the SYNC button can be clicked to set
the appliance time to match your client browser time.
If you are sharing filesystems using SMB, the client clocks must be synchronized to within five
minutes of the appliance clock to avoid user authentication errors. One way to ensure clock
synchronization is to configure the appliance and the SMB clients to use the same NTP server.
