What is "sufficiently close togehter"?
If the time is the problem. Shouldn't keepalived complain about this in it's
logs?
This is how the hwclock looks at the two directors. Should it be a problem
you think?
Director1: Thu Nov 6 15:10:41 2008 -0.488277 seconds
Director2: Thu Nov 6 15:10:41 2008 -0.490233 seconds
I will look into the potential ntp time problem. Thanks for the tip!
