Certain Application Server functions like scripting, alarming, and historizing require that all member computers of a galaxy are synchronized to the same time. A time master is a network-time-protocol server that provides a time to which other nodes on your network can synchronize.
The System Management Server node should be designated as the time master. The Application Server nodes in the galaxy periodically synchronize their clocks to the time master.
