6 To virtual reseat a server, click the check box of the servers to reseat,
and then select
Apply Selections . This operation causes the servers
to behave as if they were removed and reinserted.

CMC is present and a chassis is fully redundant, a failover occurs causing
the standby CMC to become active.
Troubleshooting Network Time Protocol (NTP)
Errors
After configuring 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. 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 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 - 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 changes to On.
•
Powering Off - Temporary state between On and Off. Once the
powering off cycle completes, the Power State changes to Off.
Virtual Reseat Select the check box to virtually reseat that server.
