NTP STOP/START PROCEDURE FOR CHARGING SYSTEM NODES

SDP/AIR

REDHAT 6.5 Nodes

Verify status with

#ntpq -d

#date

# hwclock  this is to verify that hardware clock is sync with NTP time.if any deviation then need to
correct hardware clock time manually.
correct time should be displayed.

Stop NTP process in REDHAT 6.5

#systemctl stop ntpd

Hash IP define in /etc/ntp.conf file

example:

#server 10.xx.xx.xx iburst

#server 10.xx.1.xx iburst

Start NTP process

#systemctl start ntpd

Verify

#ntpq -p , it should not show NTP server IP

#date command should be current time only.(If there is deviation from UTC time with lets say +2 sec or
-2 sec or more, please involve ERC Team

==================================================================

Redhat 7.4

It uses chrony process to handle NTP.

Verify Current status with

# chronyc sourcestats
#chronyc sources

#chronyc tracking

# hwclock  this is to verify that hardware clock is sync with NTP time. if any deviation then need to
correct hardware clock time manually.
#date

Correct time should be displayed.

Stop chrony process in REDHAT 7.4

#systemctl stop chrony

Hash IP define in /etc/chrony.conf file

example:

#server 10.xx.xx.xx iburst

#server 10.xx.1.xx iburst

Start chrony process

#systemctl stop chrony

Verify

# chronyc sourcestats

#chronyc sources

#chronyc tracking

#date command should be current time only.(If there is deviation from current time with lets say +2 sec
or -2 sec or more), please involve ERC Team

============================================================

Solaris 10/9.

We don’t have server to verify but same steps can be followed by hashing IP and restarting NTP process.

Need to take care about health check point after this activity.
 ECMS/MINSAT/VS/ngVS/IVR

For Solaris ECMS:-

1. Start the NTP daemon on every machine using SMF command:

svcadm enable svc:/network/ntp:default

After starting the NTP daemon, the time synchronization begins immediately.

2. Stop NTP Daemon

The NTP daemon can be stopped using SMF command:

svcadm disable svc:/network/ntp:default

Restart NTP Daemon

The NTP daemon needs a restart when the configuration file has been modified. If the NTP Daemon terminates
itself, SMF will restart the NTP Daemon automatically. If you want to do a manual restart, you have to stop the
daemon before you can start it again.

For Linux ECMS:-

Restart ntpd/chronyd service using the following service (or) systemctl commands .

RHEL 6.x: service ntpd stop

RHEL 7.x: systemctl stop chronyd

RHEL 6.x: service ntpd start

RHEL 7.x: systemctl start chronyd

For NGVS:-

on all the nodes of VS cluster.

RHEL 6.x: sudo service ntpd stop

RHEL 7.x: sudo systemctl stop chronyd

RHEL 6.x: sudo service ntpd start

RHEL 7.x: sudo systemctl start chronyd

For Classic VS 4.0

The VS servers uses NTP to synchronize the time with an external time source. If there were no IP
addresses to external NTP servers provided during the installation, the first VS server (VS1) is used as
NTP server for the second server (VS2).

Hence it should be enough to only disable and enable the ntp services on VS1 of the cluster, provided
the VS1 is configured to external NTP and VS2 is configured to host1_priv

svcadm disable ntp

svcadm enable ntp

For MINSAT:-
svcadm disable ntp

svcadm enable ntp

For VXML-IVR:-

Restart ntpd service using the following service commands.

service ntpd stop

service ntpd start

OCC

All OCC RHEL Version 6

STOP

# service ntpd status – Check the status of NTP daemon services

# service ntpd stop – Stop NTP daemon services

# service ntpd status – Check the status of NTP daemon services

START
# service ntpd status – Check the status of NTP daemon services

# service ntpd start - Start NTP services

# service ntpd status – Check the status of NTP daemon services
