Note 'fsctl sync_clock' immediately takes effect - which can affect the times on your CDRs. You can end up undrebilling/overbilling, or even calls hungup before they originated. If FS currently shows 1999 then your CDRs are going to show calls that lasted for 15 years!<div>
<br></div><div>'fsctl sync_clock_when_idle' is much safer, which does the same but doesn't take effect until there are 0 channels in use. That way it doesn't affect any CDRs.</div><div><br></div><div>-Steve<br>
