Hi,

I am installing proxmox on 3 node fresh. Somehow 1 node kept having different time from others two. I check the time zone and they all have the same time zone. I restarted the one have diff time in setup and check the time and confirmed it has the correct time. After restart a few time in setup to check time, I continue to confirm the time is correct but the node kept having diff time. I issued a command timedatectl and it show the one has diff time has the 'System clock synchronized: no' while the others two has 'System clock synchronized: yes'. Could someone please let me know how to change that or some way to fix the time?

I don't see any log related to NTP and time...... That was a new install of proxmox and I even reinstalled and still see the same issue.

It was a fresh install and I want to validate time before I create a cluster.... somehow time not match or sync correctly.

I fixed the issue now by go into the bios to change the time to match with UTC. Reboot the system and the time is correct now.

Hi,
nevertheless I recommend to check if the NTP service is up and running as intended. Proxmox VE uses chrony by default, please check its status via systemctl status chrony.service
 
Thanks for the reply. I checked and it showed chrony.service is enable and active. Hope time will not be an issue anymore.
