Showing Time Settings
Namespace policy (described in later chapters) requires that the ARX has its clock
synchronized with those of its back-end filers. Kerberos authentication also requires
synchronized time. You should configure the ARX to use the same NTP servers that
the filers use; refer to “Configuring NTP” on page 4-15 in the CLI
Network-Management Guide for instructions.
To check the clock skew between the ARX and a filer, use the
time keyword in the
show exports command:
show exports host filer [share share-path] time
where the options are explained earlier.
This shows the time skew for both NFS and CIFS. No Windows credentials are
required to find the CIFS server’s clock setting.
For example:
bstnA6k> show exports host 192.168.25.20 time
Export probe of filer “192.168.25.20”
CIFS Credentials: [anonymous]
Time:
NFS
CIFS
Filer's time is the same as the switch's time.

Showing CIFS Attributes
This test applies to CIFS shares only. This is not part of the default show exports tests;
you must invoke it separately.
