Hi All,

Side-issue...

Has anyone heard of systems under vmware environments gaining time?

Ingres is running fine, just SuSE linux running in a vmware set up is
gaining about an hour a day.

Regards,
Andrew.

That is pretty neat! I have been trying to find a
way to gain some time. 7 hours a week would be great!

"Would I be taxed on it?" is the obvious next question ...

No Taxes, but the Cows don't like gaining 1 hour so I can't see them
enjoying 7!

Hi Andrew,

I have seen this and a system lose time, but only with VMware GSX/Server
not on ESX. In theory you can set the kernel options in the guest to
include clock=pit however the system that is losing time has this set
(AMD 64 running a 32bit SuSE VM). http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918461
shows how you change this for the Grub and LILO boot managers.

regards
