I am new here, Hi to all.
I've got some Openvz VPS from some hosting provider.
The time was out by 2 hours, even though I did set the proper timezone from inside the container.
I contacted the support.
The answer was they need to run some cronjob (that they trigger twice a day) to sync the VMs to the hardware node. Indeed this is supposed to be required in case the VM has been reboot or reinstalled according to the support.
Is that the way it has to be done ?
My undrerstanding was rather that in anycase the container time was locked to the node time that it receives from it no matter what (reboot or reinstall) ?
I don't get the reason why the node would require some cron task to put things back in sync.
To me the HN would just need proper time (i.e. ntpd)
Or am I missing something ?
Thanks in advance for any clarification.
