No need for ntp I was told since we use the vmware tools.
Time (date) gives perfect accurate time

Try changing the zone in sysconfig to "Europe/London".

I've modified the /etc/sysconfig/clock to

ZONE="Europe/London"

Now date gives

Thu May 16 07:41:06 BST 2013

And hwclock gives

Thu 16 May 2013 07:41:28 AM BST -0.946882 seconds

The nagiosxi profile show

Date/Time

PHP Timezone: Europe/London
PHP Time: Thu, 16 May 2013 07:43:40 +0100
System Time: Thu, 16 May 2013 07:43:40 +0100
