Server Clocks out of sync issue with NTP
These type of issues triggers if any host's clock goes out of sync with the time given by NTP.
In resolution, can perform following steps as troubleshooting:
1. Open Command prompt as Administrator
2. Check the current source Server to time sync on host:
w32tm /query /source
3. Command to check Host Server date and time:
echo %date%:%time%
4. Command to check DC’s current time settings:
w32tm /stripchart /computer:<DC_Name> /dataonly
Steps to reconfigure Win time services:
Net stop w32time
W32tm /unregister
W32tm /register
Net start w32time
W32tm /config /syncfromflag:DOMHIER /update
W32tm /resync /nowait
Net stop w32time
Net start w32time
If doesn’t works then try with rediscover:
W32tm /resync /nowait /rediscover
W32tm /query /source
W32tm /monitor
Sync time with specific DC :
Net time \\<DC_NAME> /set /y
Command to check DC’s current time settings:
W32tm /stripchart /computer:<DC_Name> /dataonly
To Sync with DC current system time with an external time server:
W32tm /resync /computer:<DC_Name> /nowait
