Hi

This alert will be raised when the difference between the Base Monitor clock time and the monitored server clock time is greater than fifteen seconds.

This is important because large time differences between machines can cause authentication issues which will prevent our software monitoring correctly.

I hope this helps

Regards
Chris

I'm getting the same message every day at seemingly random times. My base monitor and SQL server are the same machine so I don't see how this can even be possible. Can you please advise on how to fix this alert?

First of all, apologies for the very late reply.

This does sound a bit crazy. Can you confirm that the SQL Server you mention is the server you are monitoring as opposed to the server that hosts the SQL Monitor data repository?

Regards
Chris
