Question

Water-utility operators see skewed NSX logs and certificate warnings after a power event. Where in the NSX GUI do they set time and NTP on the Manager appliance?

Accepted Answer

System appliance time settings (NTP) on NSX Manager. — If city hall's wall clock is wrong, the visitor log and the door badges both look crazy. NTP for NSX Manager is a System appliance setting, not a 311 VM, vSphere HA, or a DFW schedule.

Answer

The guest OS NTP client on a 311 web VM, because that VM is the NSX Manager clock.

Answer

vSphere HA admission control, because cluster HA is the NSX clock source.

Answer

Security, then Distributed Firewall time-based policies, because those policies set the Manager clock.
