Adding an NTP Service
The HostConfigManager.dateTimeSystem property contains a HostDateTimeSystem data object. This object allows you to perform NTP and date and time related configuration.
- Query and update the date and time information by using one of the methods defined in HostDateTimeSystem.
- Modify the
HostDateTimeSystem.dateTimeInfo property, which
contains a
HostDateTimeInfo object, to
set up NTP. The NTP information is stored in the
HostDateTimeInfo.ntpConfig
property, which is a
HostNtpConfig object. The
HostNtpConfig objects’s
server property contains a
list of time servers, specified by IP address or fully qualified domain name.
Important: You can start and stop the NTP daemon and retrieve information about it by using the HostServiceSystem object.
