Since my servers are in Canada, I use ca. Many colleges and universities offer NTP servers; just make sure, that you are within their published guidelines. Sometimes, for reasons lost in the depth of antiquity, you may find a server that has the time service disabled or unregistered.
So, let's ensure we have a known state:. OK, so I'm told that Windows is "supposed" to automatically find the timezone at install. I've had that happen exactly once. I've given up trying to figure out the magic to make that happen. Use GPOs by site if you span multiple time zones. The w32tm command manages the w32time service.
Because some dev at Microsoft said so, that's why. This command says to configure the time service to use a manual list of peers NTP servers , to use a manual source that we just gave it , to mark itself as "reliable", meaning that it can serve time to others, and to inform the service that the configuration has changed.
I don't know why one would want to update the config but not use the changes However, when setting up the PDC or fixing time issues, I'd rather wait for the call to complete, and then, i restart the service. But wait, you say, that "shouldn't" be necessary.
And you're not wrong. It "shouldn't". I've been doing this IT thing for over 30 years. I restart the service. Configuring the domain members is even easier. Instead of using a manual list of peers, we don't even tell them to use the DC by name. We use the "domhier" flag to sync to the domain hierarchy. This means that if the PDC changes, all is well. I use the exact same script that I do for a domain controller, including the external sources.
However, you could, instead, point them to your PDC. This is a really annoying gotcha. Independent of all this goodness, Hyper-V will attempt to synchronize the Host and the Guests, blissfully ignoring all the hard work you've just done.
In theory, this is a good idea. In practice, I'd rather have my domain members behaving like domain members, and my non-domain members being independent. In the worst case, the two types of synchronization start fighting with each other and Really Bad Things happen to your Windows time-keeping as the clock changes constantly. I choose to disable it via the registry in almost all of my guest VMs, and I also generally de-select it in the Hyper-V integration settings you know, belt and suspenders.
If you choose to allow the Integration components to sync the Guest Time, you must make sure that the Hyper-V server is properly sync'd to the domain or an external source.
I use a script for domain members I'm outnumbered. In fact, I'm been known to put such a script in a GPO as a startup script on the server OU to make reasonably sure that time settings never get messed up again! But where, oh where, could one ever find such a script? When I learned about computer time in computer networks, Microsoft Windows didn't exist.
Atomic Clock Sync can even help repair the Windows Time Service if your computer is no longer able to check for Internet Time updates as it normally would. The clock would still begin to lose time as soon as it was reset. Not only was it messing with virtually every time-sensitive application on the system, but it was literally driving me crazy.
I finally ran across an entry on an Adobe InDesign blog, posted by a user who, like me, was a graphic artist, and whose clock issues were messing with his workflow. He had inadvertently discovered a fix for his system while updating his creative suite. He recommended that I try the same thing, so as the last resort of a man clinging to the ragged edge of my sanity, I did… and it worked!
In this order, I uninstalled Adobe Reader, changed the Time Zone on the clock to anything other than the correct one for my location, then re-booted the system. When it came back up, I re-set the clock to the correct Time Zone, then re-installed directly from a new, free download the latest version of Adobe Reader, then re-booted.
I have an atomic clock on the wall over my monitor and both clocks advance to the next minute within milliseconds of each other. I was just so thrilled with this that I had to come back to this blog and share it in the event that it just might work for someone else.
Thanks for the Tip i will be sure to try this on the next computer i have that has that Time issue. Your email address will not be published. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
