Clock issues, 'date' gets stuck on same 8 seconds
Hi All,
This one is a real headache. (redhat EL 4 up 4) When I repeatedly run `date` I get the 8 sec rage hour: When I repeat `hwclock` I get a normal time flow. (ntpd is stopped) [root@kumar ~]# hwclock Fri 02 Apr 2010 10:41:45 AM UTC -0.407433 seconds [root@kumar ~]# hwclock Fri 02 Apr 2010 10:41:47 AM UTC -0.373088 seconds [root@kumar ~]# hwclock Fri 02 Apr 2010 10:41:49 AM UTC -0.271714 seconds [root@kumar ~]# date Thu Apr 1 21:52:00 UTC 2010 [root@kumar ~]# date Thu Apr 1 21:52:03 UTC 2010 [root@kumar ~]# date Thu Apr 1 21:52:00 UTC 2010 What did I try so far? (first I changed the clock battery on the motherboard) - various configurations of ntpd (while turning it on) - running: `hwclock --systohc` - setting: `ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Israel /etc/localtime` (not in the example above) I'm pretty sure the system clock is ok, I check on every reboot. Another issue is that the os fails to shut down. It takes about 40 min, then it goes into runlevel 1 and then I run init 0 . And it says: switching runlevel.. INIT: Sending TERM sig... and back to runlevel 1. And then I unplug it... Any suggestion will be highly appreciated. (excluding blue paint and seaside tasks ;-) Amir. |
You should report this things to Red Hat as bug's. You are having OS problems that run deep in OS insides.
