Hi.

My domU date is about 75 seconds (and climbing?) behind domU.

Tue Feb 21 23:11:31 UTC 2006 - dom0
Tue Feb 21 23:10:16 UTC 2006 - domu
Tue Feb 21 18:10:17 EST 2006 - domu

domUs' /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock was 0

Set that to 1: echo 1 >  /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock

Still out by about 75 seconds:

Tue Feb 21 23:14:32 UTC 2006 - dom0
Tue Feb 21 23:13:17 UTC 2006 - domU

After that I run an ntpdate to fix it (works OK):
Tue Feb 21 23:18:48 UTC 2006 - dom0
21 Feb 18:18:51 ntpdate[10302]: adjust time server 193.120.10.3 offset 0.079829 sec
Tue Feb 21 18:18:51 EST 2006 - domU

What I'd like is for the domUs to track the dom0 time (since it it running ntpd).

Is this a known issue? Is there a dom0 compile option (CONFIG_RTC, ...?) that I need to enable to get domUs to reflect the dom0 time?

Regards, Peter
