Configure NTP Servers

Configure the Oracle FS System time so that event timestamps and logging timestamps are accurate and so that time-dependent applications work properly.

  1. Navigate to System > Global Settings > System Time.
  2. Select Actions > Modify.
  3. Select the option for configuring the system time.
  4. Depending on which option you select, enter the NTP server details for up to three NTP servers, or choose the system time using the date and time dialog.
    Note: Using system time is not recommended.
    Important! If either option that you choose changes the time to be prior to the current time, the Pilot restarts to implement the new time.
  5. Click OK.
After approximately 15 minutes, ensure that there are no Oracle FS System alerts and events indicating that the NTP sync has failed.
Note: Microsoft Windows systems can be used for NTP servers only if a third party UNIX-compatible NTP application is installed on them.
