then select
Apply Selections . This operation causes the servers to behave
as if they were removed and reinserted.

Troubleshooting Network Time Protocol (NTP)
Errors
After configuring the CMC to synchronize its clock with a remote time server
over the network, it may take 2-3 minutes before a change in the date and
time occurs. If after this time there is still no change, it may be necessary to
troubleshoot a problem. The CMC may not be able to synchronize its clock
for a number of reasons:
• There could be a problem with the NTP Server 1, NTP Server 2, and NTP
Server 3 settings.
• An invalid host name or IP address may have been accidentally entered.
• There could be a network connectivity problem that prevents the CMC
from communicating with any of the configured NTP servers.
• There could be a DNS problem, preventing any of the NTP server host
names from being resolved.
Power State Displays the server power status:
• N/A - The CMC has not determined the power state of the server.
•
Off - The server or the chassis is off.
•
On - The chassis and server are on.
•
Powering On - Temporary state between Off and On. Once the
powering on cycle completes, the Power State will change to On.
•
Powering Off - Temporary state between On and Off. Once the
powering off cycle completes, the Power State will change to Off.
Virtual Reseat Select the check box to virtually reseat that server.
