Hi All,

I have requirement to create monitoring to generate an alert if there is a Change in Time clock on the Client server with the Reference server as Master server which is i UTC +1 time zone.

I used Kevin Holmans blog : https://kevinholman.com/2017/08/26/monitoring-for-time-drift-in-your-enterprise/

I applied necessary overrides on monitor and rule. However the counter / parameter on the client is showing in not monitoring state

    Maybe show us the detail of the warning alert, and go have a look at the Operations Manager event viewer on that server ?

    Hi @Arthur Ruben ,

    according to the comment section, this is known (One sample can just error out):
    270131-image.png

    So you might want to update the script with the one from the comments. As the MP is a XML you can use any editor and just replace the current script with the new one.

    Hope this helps!

    Are you sure that client server is able to query time on reference master server?
    I believe 0x800705b4 means "query timeout"
