Hello
I am trying to install 11.2.0.4 GI  (OS is Linux 6.5) and during the final
checks, the installer complains of ntp check failing on both nodes (2 node
rac installation).

My ntpd file on both nodes is
 cat /etc/sysconfig/ntpd
# Drop root to id 'ntp:ntp' by default.
OPTIONS="-x -u ntp:ntp -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -g"

The ntp daemon is started on both nodes.

OUI just reports like this  '   This task verifies the cluster time
synhronization on clusters that use Network Time Protocol (NTP)'
Check failed on Nodes 'node2, node1'

If I stop ntp and then ctssd check is fine and the installer would let me
install. But I have read that there are several issues with ctssd and I
also want to figure out what is wrong with the ntp service that it gives
this error.

Any suggestions?


Thank you
Kumar
