Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • ActiveIQ Unified Manager (AIQUM) with Windows server was found to have an OS clock drift.

Answer

  • Correcting OS time drift on an AIQUM server may temporarily affect cluster discovery, monitoring, event management, and data collection processes.
  • However, once the system time has been synchronized and the time discrepancy has been eliminated, AIQUM typically recovers automatically and resumes normal operation.

If there is a long-term OS time drift appears, perform the system time correction during a maintenance window or another period of low operational impact.
