| Cloud Link Service fails to register when the date and time are not in sync with NTP Server. |
If the date and time on the host containing the Cloud Link Service are not in sync with the NTP server, then invalid certificate exceptions are logged. |
Update the date and time to be in sync with the NTP Server.
Execute the following commands to resolve the issue:
1. To display the default date and time on your system, execute the following command: timedatectl status
2. Execute the following command to turn off the NTP Server: timedatectl set-ntp 0
3. Execute the following command to correct the date and time: timedatectl set-time ‘date time’ Replace the default date and time with current date and time. Example: timedatectl set-time '2020-02-02 16:14:50'
4. Execute the following command to turn on the NTP Server: timedatectl set-ntp 1
5. Register the Cloud Link Service by using the recently downloaded activation package. For more information, see Register the Cloud Link Service. |
