Re: NTP Server 5 seconds error

tombhandari1 · ‎2017-01-10

When I run

cluster time-service ntp server create -server X.X.X.X.-version auto,

I get this error:

Error: command failed: Unable to successfully query NTP server X.X.X.X with address X.X.X.X. within 5 seconds.

Can anyone help please?

Which version of ONTAP? Can you successfully ping NTP server via the node management LIF?

I am having the same error running on Ontap 9.1. And I can ping the NTP servers from the node mgmt LIF.

Any suggestions

Hey this page is not available. I also have the same problem.

Is there other commands to solve this problem? Thank you

Hi thank you for your quick reply, but on Cluster is already one Time Server configured. I need to add 2 more time servers because of the redundancy.

As you can see below, I can ping the time servers, they are available. But unfortunately I get the following errors when I enter the command to add additional timer servers.
