Clock Drift on DL380 Gen (

[jmustic]

I have an HP DL380 Gen 9 server running windows server 16 in a disconnected lab environment.  This server is also a domain controller.  The server time drifts wildly day to day from actual time.  The lab has a GPS clock for comparison.  The time drifts as much as 2 minutes overnight.

My questions are 

1) is this normal for server hardware in a disconnected environment.

2) are there real time clock boards available to keep time while the server is up?

3) if so, is there a way to identify if a clock board is installed?

Thanks

Hi:

HP split into two companies a few years ago.

HP supports, PC's, printers, tablets and calculators.

HP Enterprise (HPE) supports servers, switches, routers and tape drives.

You may also want to post your question on the HPE Community support forum -- ProLiant Servers section...

Thanks for the feedback. I wondered why there wasn't a server option to bin questions in.
