Please lookup up in the Wiki and/or the manual.

There must be only one place where the time is set. Either on the HN or one container.

It is even recommended to use a container and set the time with NTP within one container for security reasons. In this case you have to:

a) assign a capability SYS_TIME to set the system time
b) give access to the /dev/rtc0 device if you want to also set the time back to the RTC clock

The time set will the UTC and all container use UTC+offset as their system time whereas offset is a constant specific for each container, usually the time zone and/or daylight saving. You have to lookup in the CentOS docs how to set the timezone there (this is an OpenVZ forum Wink ).
