Date and Time reverting after installing an update and rebooting
All - We have run into a weird issue with one of our servers. When we apply new service updates to the server and it reboots, the date and time on the server revert to a different date and time. Among others the main issue with this is that the only way to correct the server is to use the console (this is a VMWare virtualized server). We have tried unjoining the server from the domain and renaming the server, it helped but the issue has returned. Any ideas? Thanks RichRich Koland

First, the most obvious... have you checked to make sure the server is configured for the correct time zone? Second, have you checked the date and time configured on the host VMware server?Visit: anITKB.com, an IT Knowledge Base.

Hello, this pure sounds liek the VMWare host time is not the same as the domain time. If possible configure the VMWare host to use the same time source as the domains PDCEmulator, NOT the other way aorund.Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

This is resolved - the issue had to due with some DNS sysnchronization issues and host names. We forced a sync between all domain controllers and disable IPv6 onthe clients and the issue resolved itself. RichRich Koland
