Synchronizing PowerVault NX3500 With a Local NTP Server
Network Time Protocol (NTP) helps in synchronizing and coordinating time
distribution. The NTP server helps in synchronizing the clocks over the network.
If the system is not part of a Windows network, configure it to synchronize
with a local NTP server (if such a server exists), or with an NTP server on the
Internet. However if the system is part of a windows network, the AD can
serve as the NTP server.
To configure the PowerVault NX3500 system to be synchronized with a local
NTP server or an NTP server on the Internet:
1
Click
