It is hard for anyone to tell without access to the hardware CMOS directly, but since you are off by an hour in the web services (and that is the exact same problem we had) I would believe that your hardware is not running as UTC/GMT. From what I have heard it is common to have the physical machine set in a local timezone when one of the virtual machines (or possibly could be) is a Windows OS.
I would recommend changing UTC to false in the /etc/sysconfig/clock file and running /sbin/hwclock --hctosys /sbin/hwclock --systohc Fred -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of L G Robinson Sent: Monday, April 30, 2012 8:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Webservices and Queries ** Hi Fred, Thanks for the tip about hwclock. I had no idea. My Mid-tier (and thus webservices) are running on a Linux VM. Can you tell from the following if my system is set correctly? I am unable to locate any hardware clock settings on the VSphere client that I have access to, but I have limited permissions. cat /etc/sysconfig/clock ZONE="America/New_York" UTC=true /sbin/hwclock -ru Mon 30 Apr 2012 07:55:32 PM EDT -0.650259 seconds cat /etc/adjtime 0.000000 1316200184 0.000000 1316200184 UTC Thanks.

We ran across a Linux bug when the hardware clock thought it was GMT and the system clock thought it wasn't. You can check by: cat /etc/sysconfig/clock And seeing if UTC is true or false If it is set true and the hardware clock isn't GMT then the admin needs to update the /etc/sysconfig/clock file and re-sync the time with /sbin/hwclock --systohc Fred _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
