Hello Proxmox Community,
I'm reaching out today to seek assistance with an issue related to the local time synchronization in my Proxmox guest.
I have noticed that the local time inside the guest is consistently delayed behind the Real-Time Clock (RTC) time. 24 hours after restart it is already off by approximately 3 seconds. This time delay is causing some inconvenience and affecting the accuracy of certain operations within the guest.
I have taken the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:
If anyone in the community has encountered a similar issue or has expertise in this area, I would greatly appreciate your guidance and assistance in resolving this time synchronization problem. Any suggestions, tips, or insights would be highly valuable.
Thank you all in advance for your time and support. I look forward to hearing from you and learning from your experiences.
Best regards,

I have taken the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:
- Verified with `chronyc tracking` that the host system's RTC time is accurate and synchronized with the external time source.
- Confirmed that the Proxmox VE Guest Agent is installed and running inside the guest. As per recommendation, NTP service is disabled in the guest. The `current_clocksource` is `kvm-clock`.
- Ensured that the guest's time zone configuration is correctly set.
