So we have some servers that pass timestamps around to see how long they have to do something before throwing in the towel.
They've recently put in some logging to debug some errors and have found some cases of going back in time. TmsSent 2016-07-20 07:40:07.000034 | TrapRx 2016-07-20 07:40:06.000944 So back in time by nearly a second (.99909). These 2 servers are on the same VM system. Both run NTP. We know things get really out of whack without NTP. We had a bug where it didn't start and things got really confused. Could NTP be misbehaving? It was just patched. How can I prove that the clocks on the 2 servers have a different time so that I can ascertain if it is NTP or something else.
