Method 2: Stopping SNTP

 

You can stop the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client and server from starting when TCP/IP restarts. Complete these steps if you want to stop the SNTP client server from starting when TCP/IP restarts. These instructions do not stop SNTP immediately.

  1. From iSeries™ Navigator, expand My Connections > system-name > Network > Servers > TCP/IP.

  2. Right-click SNTP, and select Properties.

  3. On the General page, deselect Client, Server or both, depending on how SNTP was originally configured. For V5R2 or earlier systems, deselect Start when TCP/IP is started.

  4. Click OK.

SNTP will not start when a new TCP/IP session begins. However, the current TCP/IP session can still make time adjustments. To stop SNTP immediately, complete the instructions for Method 1: Stopping the current SNTP session.
