Ntp problems on N5k: frequency error 512 PPM exceeds tolerance 500 PPM

Hi,

sadly our N5-K's  ( 5548Up, NX-OS 5.0.(3)N2.2 ) show the following issue with ntp. I asked my colleagues about the status of the ntp server

and the box seems to be fine  (windows 2003 server).

May 12 23:01:28 myn5k ntpd[4719]: ntp:time reset +0.219687 s

2012 May 13 16:41:29 myn5k ntpd[4719]: ntp:frequency error 512 PPM exceeds tolerance 500 PPM

2012 May 13 16:42:50 myn5k ntpd[4719]: ntp:frequency error 510 PPM exceeds tolerance 500 PPM

2012 May 13 16:43:24 myn5k ntpd[4719]: ntp:frequency error 506 PPM exceeds tolerance 500 PPM

2012 May 13 16:43:55 myn5k ntpd[4719]: ntp:frequency error 503 PPM exceeds tolerance 500 PPM

The problems suddently started after having ntp enabled for some month already.

Are there known stability issues with the local timesource of the n5k ?

Any hints what could cause this issue ?

Thanks,

christian
