NOTE: In the examples that follow, user details, table name, company name, email, hostnames, etc. represent a fictitious sample (and are used to provide an illustrative example only). Any similarity to actual persons, or entities, living or dead, is purely coincidental and not intended in any manner.
On a BDA 4.11.0 / CDH 5.13.1 / OL 6.9 / Kernel 4.1.12-103.9.7.el6uek.x86_64 cluster the NTP clock offset goes bad.
In the example here the NTP clock offset went bad on one node, bdanode04, on September 24 at 9:57 PM.
When the issue occurs, messaging like below is seen in the logs:
Sep 24 9:58 PM Clock Offset Good
Sep 24 9:57 PM Clock Offset Bad
Sep 24 9:57 PM Clock Offset Bad
Three NTP servers are configured on the cluster.
In the example here, the cluster previously had only 2 NTP servers but experienced similar problems which led to the addition of a third NTP server.
