Database Error Messages

PRVG-01029

NTP daemon "{0}" was running on nodes "{1}" but PID file "{2}" was missing.

Cause

While performing prerequisite checks, Configuration Verification Utility (CVU) found that the indicated network time protocol (NTP) daemon was running on the specified nodes, but the daemon had not been started with the PID file command line option. In the absence of the indicated PID file, if the installation proceeds, the Cluster Time Synchronization Services (CTSS) will be started in active mode and there will be two different time synchronization mechanisms running at the same time on the specified nodes.


Action

To use NTP for time synchronization, start the daemon with the PID file command line option and set up its configuration as described in the vendor's NTP document on all nodes of the cluster. Ensure that the PID file specified on the command line matches the PID file indicated in the message. To use CTSS for time synchronization, deconfigure NTP on all nodes of the cluster. Refer to Oracle database documentation for more information.
