I've seen issues like this happen, but only when there's an external utility being used to set the time. Are you using rdate or ntpd or something similar? A well-configured NTP instance will drag the clock rather than jumping it ahead, but sometimes NTP can do that. I can't speak to the oprocd+third party clusterware issue.

Not about your problem but having oprocd running when the third party cluster is running as well means the installation wasnt right, it's not a not recommended configuration but rather not supported Thanks -- LSC On Fri, Jan 2, 2009 at 3:47 PM, <Rajesh.Rao@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6595936 Oracle bug 5015469 - OPROCD REBOOTS NODE WHEN TIME IS SET BACK BY XNTPD Some more info. We also use Veritas Clusterware, and apparently, also have oprocd running (which is not the recommended configuration). But we also have experienced it on clusters with no Veritas involved. For that, Oracle recommends "other non-VCS customers need to have CRS 10203 at recent MLR or BP patch + Solairs fix for CR#6595936" But setting css diagwait from the default value of 0.5 to 13, makes them immune, in either cases. Metalink has a note on setting this, which needs clusterware to be down on all nodes. But can be set only on 10.2.0.3 and above.

I am chasing some crash/reboot issues in a sol10 x64 cluster that I couldn't explain so far. nothing in crs logs, nothing in syslog/messages. Both machines use ntp to update local time. How do I change diagwait? But then again, i have another (very similar) cluster that does not show these problems.
