Configure Clock Skew Alert

pdolphin

We are getting random Clock skew errors for VMs on the same host. We are trying to figure out why and it would be helpful if we could configure the Clock Skew alert to trigger after a 5 second difference not 15. Is there a way to do this? An undocumented registry setting or config file change?

We think the time it takes for the clock to drift 15 seconds is about the interval for the host to check its time with the domain and fix itself. This leaves us very little time between getting the alert and the VM fixing itself to look at what is going on.

Hi pdolphin,

Thanks for posting on the Redgate forums.

At present, there aren't any config options for this alert.

You can use the SQL Monitor uservoice page https://sqlmonitor.uservoice.com to suggest future enhancements for future SQL Monitor versions.
