[Home] [Forum] [3i RCLI Guide]
The commands vicfg-ntp.pl (esxcfg-ntp.pl) allow you to add and remove NTP servers from your ESX 3i host.
To list the NTP servers that the host has been configured with run this command:
vicfg-ntp.pl --server <server_name> -l
To add an NTP server to your host run the below command. You can use a hostname or IP address.
vicfg-ntp.pl --server <server_name> -a <NTP_server_name>
To remove an NTP server run this command.
vicfg-ntp.pl --server <server_name> -d <NTP_server_name>
Notes
1) Update 2 of the RCLI includes the options --start and --stop to start and stop the service on the ESXi host.
2) This configuration can also be done with the VI client
