sntp configuration in SF500 seems not working

I am experiencing the following issue:

 

SF500 switch is configured at the office and installed at remote location.   I check the clock setting (with CLI) after installing and see that the clock is NOT synchronized with the sntp server.

 

Then i go into cli and remove and add the same sntp server.  And - surprise - the time is synchonized.....

What am i doing wrong here?  Below is the output from the time part of the running-config, and a show version

 

SW-test#sh ver

Ok, i just discovered that there probably also should be a "poll" after the sntp server ip addresses.

sntp server 172.27.3.1 poll
