OID Shuts Down With oidmon.log Error "Time Difference of atleast 250 sec found" (Doc ID 568027.1)

Last updated on AUGUST 08, 2017

Applies to:

Oracle Internet Directory - Version 10.1.2 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Multiple OID instances, located on separate machines, share the same Metadata Repository.
A single OID instance starts successfully
When starting a second instance, the first instance shuts down automatically. On the affected server, oidmon.log reports:
date * Time Difference of atleast 250 sec found between server1 and server2.
date * Please sync the time between server1 and server2
date * Please adjust the time and restart OID
Comparison of the clocks of the two servers shows that they are significantly out of sync.

When this occurs, messages similar to the following may appear in oidldapd.log:

2011/05/03:11:13:48 * Main:0 * Oid Server Connected to DB store via connect string.
