TIME checker The difference is in seconds, not in ms (why seconds because the TIME protocol only gives the precision in seconds). The overflow should also be gone in the current version of the COM check. The installer issue is a visual issue, but fixed in the new upload :-)

I was having some difficulty with it, but have it figured out now. I was getting ERR: Overflow( 70) every time it ran. The configuration I’ve got set right now is: Time Server: nearest domain controller Max Difference: SNTP protocol (although I’ve tried both with the same result Max difference: 3600 The problem I had is that I expected to provide the max difference in milliseconds, not seconds and thus had used a max difference of 3600000. The other issue I see with it is that I’d like to see the results as a numeric value so it can be graphed with RRDTool (can com check results be graphed?). We have checks already built for checking time drift on our servers, but would change to using the com check if it provides the same functionality we have now. I also noticed the installer also says “Welcome to the SolusVM – VPS checker Setup Wizard”. Regards, Brett Hanson Systems Analyst, Agrium Inc.
