Enable or Disable NTP Service
You can enable or disable your NTP service, depending on the servers you have already configured. You can only enable NTP service if you have configured at least one NTP Server.
|
If you disable the service and re-enable it, Red Hat will select appropriate servers for you from its pool. You will always be provided with the same number of NTP servers you had previously enabled. |
Configure NTP Servers
Click Configure NTP Servers and follow the instructions to Add or Edit your NTP servers. You can use IPv4 notation or fully qualified domain names.
If you delete all your NTP servers, the service is automatically disabled. If you add an NTP server, the service is automatically enabled when you deploy, and you can then choose to disable the service if required.
|
You can add up to 20 NTP Servers. When you edit or add an NTP server, the service is automatically restarted in order to apply the new configuration. For more information, we recommend that you refer to Red Hat documentation on NTP service configuration |
|
Clearswift Server Console only supports NTPd using either the iburst parameter, or no suffix following the server entry. For example: server 0.rhel.pool.org iburst server 0.rhel.pool.org However, if you want to add alternative suffixes, or add more than 20 NTP server entries, you can manually edit the file: /etc/ntp.conf. |
