Recipes
client
Configures the node to use the chrony
application to keep the node's clock synced. If there is a node using the chrony::master
recipe, the client will attempt to sync with it, unless disabled via ['chrony']['search_masters']
. If there is not an available master, the attribute list ['chrony'][:servers]
is used (defaults are [0-3].debian.pool.ntp.org
). If there is a master node, the ['chrony'][:allowed]
will be set to allow for syncing with the master.
default
The default recipe passes through to the client recipe.
master
The node will use the chrony
application to provide time to nodes using the chrony::client
recipe. The master sets its own time against the attribute list ['chrony'][:servers]
(defaults are [0-3].debian.pool.ntp.org
). Access to this master is restricted by the ['chrony'][:allowed]
attribute set in the recipe (default is to the x.y.*
subnet).
Usage
Nodes using the chrony::client
recipe will attempt to sync time with nodes using the chrony::master
recipe. If there are no chrony::master
nodes found, the contents of the attribute list ['chrony'][:servers]
are used (defaults are [0-3].debian.pool.ntp.org
).
The current configurations are supported:
1) Clients with direct NTP server access
2) A master with direct NTP server access with clients pointing to it
