Solstice Backup 5.1 Installation and Release Notes

Unsynchronized Client Clock Errors

If the setting for the system clock on a Backup client with Backup 5.0 client software installed differs from that of the Backup server by more than one minute, you receive the following message during a scheduled backup that invokes the savegrp program:


Warning: unsynchronized client clock detected

If the gap in synchronization is less than two minutes, you will see these errors, but the schedule is still honored. (This situation does not occur on machines with prior releases of the Backup client software installed.) To avoid this, keep the server and client clocks synchronized to within a minute of each other.
