Operating Systems AIX xntpd won't stay up... Post 302421035 by shockneck on Thursday 13th of May 2010 08:28:55 AM

First I would check that I use the same TZ on both the NTP server and the client. Second I would use the logfile and/or tracefile options of xntpd to get information from the subsystem directly as the errpt entry is not very helpful here. Then I would check:
  • Does the same error happen when using xntpd with step instead of slew? (No -x option)
  • Does it make a difference if you change the subsystem with chssys and then just issue an starsrc -s xntpd?
  • Are there any network problems between NTP server and client?
