Configure NTP Synchronisation in Your Environment
To ensure that logs on the source site are easily correlated with the logs on the cloud site, you must
synchronize the time on the vSphere Replication appliance in your environment with an NTP server.
By default, the vSphere Replication appliance is synchronized with the ESXi host on which it resides. If the
ESXi host is synchronized with an NTP server, you do not have to congure the vSphere Replication
appliance.
Procedure
1 If the ESXi host on which the vSphere Replication appliance resides is not synchronized with an NTP
server, congure NTP synchronization on the vSphere Replication appliance.
a In the vSphere inventory tree, locate the vSphere Replication appliance, right click and select Edit
.
b On the VM Options tab, click VMware Tools.
c Deselect the Synchronize guest time with host check box.
d To congure the vSphere Replication appliance to synchronize with an NTP server, edit
the /etc/ntp.conf le to enter the address of an NTP server, and run the service ntp start
command in the command line utility.
2 Congure the vCenter Server on the source site to synchronize with an NTP server.
