problem with ntpd (leap second day bug)

[hamed]

There seems be to a bug with ntpd service because of the leap second day.
http://serverfault.com/questions/403732/anyone-else-experiencing-high-rates-of-linux-server-crashes-during-a-leap-second

One of my nodes is affected by this bug. The above link suggested that we stop ntpd service for now.
Does stopping ntpd service cause any issues for proxmox?

Thanks

No problems here but reports have stated that RHEL6 have had some issues regarding the leap second. Those reports also state that the following command sequence should solve the problem:
date ; sudo date -s "date -u" ; date
