Will NTP daemon stop when the time offset between the ESXi host and the remote NTP server is too high to be corrected automatically?

Hi all

I need your help.

I read the KB

http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1005092

****

In addition, a message similar to this may appear in the hostd.log file on ESXi 5.x:

[info 'ha-eventmgr'] Event 91 : NTP daemon stopped. Time correction 1206 > 1000 seconds. Manually set the time and restart ntpd.

****

the KB teach me, NTP daemon will down.

So I tried to create the situation, but ESXi ntpd always fix it's time with local_clock(0) before NTP damon down.

I can't confirm weather ntp daemon stop or not.

I want to know how can I confirm NTP daemon stopped ?

when the time offset between the ESXi/ESX host and the remote NTP server is too high to be corrected automatically.

Thank you for your help.
