S4128F_"apt-daily.timer: Adding random time" logs

Hi, thank you for choosing Dell. Could you check if Network Time Protocol (NTP) is disabled?  

Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol used to synchronize computer clock times in a network. It belongs to and is one of the oldest parts of the TCP/IP protocol suite. The term NTP applies to both the protocol and the client-server programs that run on computers.

NTP is disabled.(NTP server is not set.)

Could you explain why this log is generating?

Thanks,

Hi, could you tell us the OS version you're on?

The OS version is 10.5.2.2.

Thanks,

I have the log messages as well. A lot of "Clock changed MESSAGE=apt-daily.timer: Adding 11h 55min 39.768164s random time". I have NTP enabled and can access the NTP server. What does this mean, that the clock is adding 11h 55min etc. of time to the system clock? When I show the clock the time isn't changed..

Hi willem.wismans & BEN7
You can either ignore these false alarms (see the link: https://dell.to/3zKgsZZ It says "No action required")  or try upgrading your OS to the latest version 10.5.2.7 .

Sorry to tell but this this issue is still occurring in 10.5.2.7.

not sure why you call this a false alarm, it looks like a warning only, that you can choose to ignore and for that reason the link you gave says "No action required."

Hello,

yes I confirm they are warning and it is not an issue fixed in the last firmware.

Thanks
