[ovirt-users] Re: how to fix time-drift on el8 hosts?
We recently had a similar discussion in the Bhyve community.
The consensus was that it is not desirable to use both time sync
mechanisms in parallel: guest-tools and chronyd (or ntpd)
Now it would be good to know if oVirt-guest-agent is attempting to sync
the VM's clock with the host clock.
If so, it may be worth trying to disable chronyd/ntpd and see if the
time sync by the guest-agent does a better job.
In any case, the host's clock should be properly synchronized with the
real world time.
Kind regards
