Chetan Mehrotra commented on OAK-2682:
--------------------------------------

It would be a good feature to have however I am not sure if the solution can be 
stable (i.e. not produce noise) without a peer to peer communication. The 
problem being solved is similar to what NTP solves so I would prefer to leave 
that to NTP. Probably have a Java NTP Client [1] or if to be more self 
sufficient embed a NTP server.

Have not thought through the solution but may be I am wrong here.

> Currently the lease mechanism in DocumentNodeStore/mongoMk is based on the 
> assumption that the clocks are in perfect sync between all nodes of the 
> cluster. The lease is valid for 60sec with a timeout of 30sec. If clocks are 
> off by too much, and background operations happen to take couple seconds, you 
> run the risk of timing out a lease. So introducing a check which WARNs if the 
> clocks in a cluster are off by too much (1st threshold, eg 5sec?) would help 
> increase awareness. Further drastic measure could be to prevent a startup of 
> Oak at all if the difference is for example higher than a 2nd threshold 
> (optional I guess, but could be 20sec?).
