I have a Cluster Server with Windows 2003 Server and SQL Server 2000 as the
database server. Periodically I receive in the event viewer from the ClusSvc
that the time delta between Node A and Node B is X (in 100 nanoseconds).

What is consider to be good and bad ranges of values for the time delta
between Node A and Node B?

Thanks,

We get this on our servers, Windows Server 2003 now uses NTP, while 2000
used SNTP. You are seeing normal messages, NTP tries to be within 3 seconds
of the PDC emulator in the forest root (1 second = 1,000 milliseconds).

Cheers,

Rod
