To disable NTP, type:
racadm config –g cfgRemoteHosts –o cfgRhostsNtpEnable 0
To enable NTP, type:
racadm config –g cfgRemoteHosts –o cfgRhostsNtpEnable 1
If the NTP servers are configured correctly and this entry is present in the trace log, then this confirms
that CMC is not able to synchronize with any of the configured NTP servers.
If the NTP server IP address is not configured, you may see a trace log entry similar to the following:
Jan 8 19:59:24 cmc ntpd[1423]: Cannot find existing interface for address
1.2.3.4 Jan 8 19:59:24 cmc ntpd[1423]: configuration of 1.2.3.4 failed
If an NTP server setting was configured with an invalid host name, you may see a trace log entry as
follows:
Aug 21 14:34:27 cmc ntpd_initres[1298]: host name not found: blabla Aug 21
14:34:27 cmc ntpd_initres[1298]: couldn't resolve `blabla', giving up on it
For information on how to enter the gettracelog command to review the trace log using the CMC
Web interface, see Using Diagnostic Console.
Interpreting LED colors and blinking patterns
The LEDs on the chassis provide the following status of a component:
• A blinking amber LED on a module indicates a fault on that module.
• Blue, blinking LEDs are configurable by the user and used for identification. For more information
about configuration, see CMC_Stmp_Configuring LEDs to Identify Components on the Chassis.
