Um, start it? You must have synchronized clocks in a fault tolerant system

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your response. No, the ntp daemon is not running. Any other 
suggestions?

Regards
Varun

The monitors have a low tolerance to clock skew. It was common to hit strange behaviours due to unsynchronized clocks, which can manifest themselves in so many weird ways, that we decided to introduce those warning messages in case the monitors' clocks drifted too much apart.

You should run ntpd (or something of the sorts) as Michael and others have suggested. Failing to have synchronized clocks on a monitor cluster will cause all sorts of weirdness. Keep your clocks synchronized people!
