Hi all,
Good day to all. Currently we are having issues that the CUCM that is the Publisher is not synchronizing to any of the NTP servers it has set. The current version running for CUCM is the 8.6.2 and it is hosted on a vmware Esx 5.0, but the NTP servers one are the core switch (6500 series) and a router (3900 series) located at the same site. We are constantly getting the following alarms from the RTMT:
SyslogSeverityMatchFound events generated:
SeverityMatch : Critical
MatchedEvent : Oct 10 01:44:41 user 2 ntpRunningStatus.sh: Primary node NTP server is currently inaccessible or down. Verify the network between the primary and secondary nodes. Check the status of NTP on both the primary and secondary nodes via CLI 'utils ntp status'. If the network is fine, try restarting NTP using CLI 'utils ntp restart'.
AppID : Cisco Syslog Agent
As it recommended in the alarm we proceeded to do a 'utils ntp restart' but with no luck given the alarms persist and when we type the 'utils ntp status' we get the following results for the publisher:
admin:utils ntp status
ntpd (pid 15738) is running...

And when we run the same command for the Subs, we get the following:
admin:utils ntp status
ntpd (pid 1911) is running...
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
==============================================================================
CUCM Pub .INIT. 16 u 689 1024 0 0.000 0.000 0.000

Current time in America/Tegucigalpa is : Fri Oct 10 01:38:30 CST 2014
As seen from the commands, both pub and sub, indicate they are not currently synched to any ntp, however, the time they show so far is the correct one. Despite being correct time, we still are getting the alarms in a set interval of time.
Please we need your help with this in order to stop this issue as well as the alarms too and also to avoid phones to get the wrong hour date. Any help is most appreciated and hope to receive feedback soon.
Regards..
P.S. We have tried also the workaround stated in the bug CSCtw46611, however when inputting 'utils os secure permissive', the alarms are still getting generated.
