Managing time synchronization for virtual domain controllers running on VMware vSphere

For virtual domain controllers running on VMware vSphere, change the following eight lines for the virtual machines in the Advanced Configuration Options:

tools.syncTime = "0"
time.synchronize.continue = "0"
time.synchronize.restore = "0"
time.synchronize.resume.disk = "0"
time.synchronize.shrink = "0"
time.synchronize.tools.startup = "0"
time.synchronize.tools.enable = "0"
time.synchronize.resume.host = "0"

To add these settings across multiple virtual machines at once, use VMware vRealize Orchestrator.
