this is all nice but why can this not be configured in a config-file on the guest which could be distributed with shell-scripts to any machine in the cluster? _______________________________________________ GENERALLY: sync time backwards is a BUG yesterday we got a new DL380 and forget to corect hardware clock due setup resulting in 2012/08/20 and a ton of problems with mailservers, cronjobs, crashing applications and running crazy webapps - you NEVER want sync BACKWARD the system time by any autoamtism on a linux-system, really NEVER the only case where a time-sync is acceptable is after wakeup a suspended guest and in this case it is invalid to sync time backwards, but in all other cases like vmotion if timesync is disabled open-vm-tools must not touch systemtime on machines if the chckbox is disabled because you are using ntpd
