Incorrect writing in timecyncd.conf

Products

• CA API Gateway

Issue/Introduction

After upgrading to gateway version 11.1 and configuring 2 timeservers, the second fallback timeserver is not being written correctly in the file timesyncd.conf.

This means if the first timeserver fails, the second timeserver won't take over as it is not defined correctly when configured from the ssgconfig menu.

Environment

API Gateway 11.1

Resolution

As a workaround, manually update the file. Edit the /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf file - the config should look like :

###                                     WARNING:                                            ###
###     This file is auto generated by the Layer 7 System Configuration wizard.             ###
###     This file will be overwritten if the utility is re-run                              ###
###                                                                                         ###
###     /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf                                                                       ###

[Time]

NTP = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 

FallbackNTP = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 

 

The fix for the ssgconfig menu will be in the next CR for gateway 11.1.
