Re: [Xen-API] Patch discussion: Add NTP field to PIF to ntp configure
Thanks Rob!
Hello Simon,
thanks for quick answer,
could you explain more?

i think you are talking about line
# Undisciplined Local Clock. This is a fake driver intended for backup
# and when no outside source of synchronized time is available.
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
