These messges are from the control station, I think there is the time differrence between Control station and the domain Controller and there are domain mapped users for the celerra manager. you can try changing the time of the control station as same as the dc you have mapped.
You are right - This may not be a time difference issue - there may be reason which can cause this. Is there any impact accessing the CIFS server and the shares? - I hope not at this moment.
Typically these messages reflects authentication or communication issues between CIFS server and Domain controllers.
Most of the times, resetting the computer account from the data mover end (not from AD side) helps to resolve this as Gustavo already suggested - using resetserverpasswd option with the server_cifs -Join command.
Please note that this command can be run Online which will not affect the users access to the CIFS server or share. The command will look like -

Hi,
There might have some problem with the Kerberos information for the CIFS server computer account.
You can try to rejoin the CIFS server with resetserverpassword option. Please, refer to primus emc210491.

I'll follow Gustavo's tips to try to address this problem.
No news yet to share unfortunately. I'm relying on some internal teams' support.
This block of error messages is repeated for all active DC.
It difficult to imagine one single DC to be time shifted. ALL of them ? No...
I don't think we do have a concern on the CS.
The date/time/timezone is ok on the CS.
Also, why would these messages be triggered when the datamover is reboot ?

You may also refer to the EMC primus emc95309 for more details.

Hi,
I'm sorry. I think I've been fooled by a true clock skew problem because the max time gap imposed by the DC is really really short.
I could not imagine a 61sec gap would cause us so me many troubles.
Let's close this discussion.
I've opened another one, title is "datamover clock skew after reboot" to discuss the real root cause.
