[Xen-users] domUs Clock synchronisation

["Fabrizio Buratta" <extremoburo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everybody!

I know this is an ultraknown issue, but in my case i think
it is going beyond.
As you may guess my domUs clocks go faster or slower
They come with the same OS (Centos 5 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5 ) but each of them
have a different clock speed.

Why? Dom0 does not syncronize domUs  :
So i watched out looking for any solution....

First attempt:

/proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock  = 0
 /proc/sys/xen/permitted_clock_jitter = 10000000

I tried weither disabling acpi and apic for domUs .

It didn't work

Second attempt:

/proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock  = 0

ntpd on domUs .

It works but as the clocks run too fast after
a bunch of days it losts synchronization because
the drifts are too big.

More infos:

dom0 is Centos 5, my server is an hp proliant ml350 G5,
, everything works in full virtualisation.

Any suggestion?

Cheers,

Fab.
