I've been trying to find some documentation on NOW about this, but
it's pretty schetchy.  Basically, I need to confirm that my NetApp
boxes, all running 7.0.1R1, are correctly syncing their time to our
NTP servers.
Running 'ntptrace filer' just gives me stuff like this:
    # ntptrace filer1
    filer1: stratum 15, offset -0.519726, synch distance 0.00000
    0.0.0.0:        *Timeout*
Though I have the timed options setup as follows:
    timed.enable                 on         
    timed.log                    on         
    timed.max_skew               30m        
    timed.min_skew               10         
    timed.proto                  ntp        
    timed.sched                  9m         
    timed.servers                x.y.1.1,x.y.2.2
    timed.window                 15s        
The filer can ping both time servers, and I do see the following in
the messages log:
    Tue Jan  3 14:38:49 EST [kern.timed.adjust:info]: server 'x.y.2.2' reports the appliance date is slow by 0.513 seconds which is more than timed.min_skew (0.010 seconds). Adjusting date.
So I guess it's working ok, but it's hard to tell easily.  Especially
since I want to turn off the timed.log option once I know how to check
it quickly and easily for the correct time.  Esp since I've got a
cluster of F980s to keep in sync as well.
Thanks,
John
