How to Use Your Own /etc/inet/ntp.conf File

How to Use Your Own `/etc/inet/ntp.conf` File

Note:

If you installed your own /etc/inet/ntp.conf file before you installed the Oracle Solaris Cluster software, you do not need to perform this procedure. Proceed to How to Validate the Cluster.

Assume the root role on a cluster node.
Add your /etc/inet/ntp.conf file to each node of the cluster.
On each node, determine the state of the NTP service.
```
phys-schost# svcs svc:/network/ntp:default
```
Start the NTP daemon on each node.
- If the NTP service is disabled, enable the service.
```
phys-schost# svcadm enable svc:/network/ntp:default
```
- If the NTP service is online, restart the service.
```
phys-schost# svcadm restart svc:/network/ntp:default
```

Next Steps

Determine from the following list the next task to perform that applies to your cluster configuration. If you need to perform more than one task from this list, go to the first of those tasks in this list.

To find out how to install third-party applications, register resource types, set up resource groups, and configure data services, see the documentation that is supplied with the application software and the Planning and Administering Data Services for Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.4.
When your cluster is fully configured, validate the configuration. Go to How to Validate the Cluster.
Before you put the cluster into production, make a baseline recording of the cluster configuration for future diagnostic purposes. Go to How to Record Diagnostic Data of the Cluster Configuration.
