Synching multiple servers
We are running RHEL 5.6 on 3 servers. Occasionally, they will go out of sync which is visible on the facility manager (gui). Does anyone know how to get them back in sync using the command line or GUI without doing a pkill X or reset? Does anyone know what program (file) is being used to keep them in synch & what log is used to review the error?
Thanks in advance,
Ron

What do you mean by "sync"? What application or service is supposed to be in sync? What is "facility manager"?

Are you talking time-sync or are you saying that something else gets de-synchronized between them? Your question is, to be charitable, "not clear".

Ron,
Please see the other comments above. None of us not sure if you are requesting help with ntp time syncronization, or another sort of sychronization. Please see comments by Tom and other comments above.
See these links if what you are requesting has to do with time synchronization, but do please clarify your request...
