Desde la hwclock
página del manual en RHEL 4.6:
This mode (we'll call it "11 minute mode") is off until something turns it on. The ntp
daemon xntpd is one thing that turns it on. You can turn it off by running
anything, including hwclock --hctosys, that sets the System Time the old fashioned way.
To see if it is on or off, use the command adjtimex --print and look at the value of
"status". If the "64" bit of this number (expressed in binary) equal to 0, 11 minute mode
is on. Otherwise, it is off.
Entonces, en virtud de que corres, hwclock --set
es probable que lo hayas apagado. De la misma manera, puede verificar la salida del adjtimex --print
para confirmar.
