Explanation

Database synchronization-whether between replicas, clustered nodes, or distributed systems-relies heavily on consistent, accurate timestamps across all participating servers. If the system clock is skewed or unsynchronized, transactions can appear out of order, conflict detection fails, and replication breaks. The first thing to verify is that NTP (Network Time Protocol) is running and synchronizing the clock correctly. Firewall zone configuration (A) affects network access but would not cause sync errors on an already-communicating database. Applying latest firmware (B) is a maintenance task, not a targeted fix for sync errors. Checking dependencies (D) is valid for application errors but is not the first step when sync timing issues are the identified symptom.
