Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

Attributes

  • ntp['servers'] - (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)

    • Array, should be a list of upstream NTP servers that will be considered authoritative by the local NTP daemon. The local NTP daemon will act as a client, adjusting local time to match time data retrieved from the upstream NTP servers.

The NTP protocol works best with at least 4 servers. The ntp daemon will disregard any server after the 10th listed, but will continue monitoring all listed servers. For more information, see Upstream Server Time Quantity at support.ntp.org.

  • ntp['pools'] - (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)

    • Array, should be a list of upstream NTP pools that will be considered authoritative by the local NTP daemon. The local NTP daemon will act as a client, adjusting local time to match time data retrieved from each of the servers in the upstream pool.

See this Release Announcement for discussion about tuning this option.

  • ntp['peers'] - (applies to NTP Servers ONLY)

  • ntp['restrictions'] - (applies to NTP Servers only)

    • Array, should be a list of restrict lines to define access to NTP clients on your LAN.
  • ntp['sync_clock'] (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)

    • Boolean. Defaults to false. Forces the ntp daemon to be halted, an ntp -q command to be issued, and the ntp daemon to be restarted again on every Chef-client run. Will have no effect if drift is over 1000 seconds.
  • ntp['sync_hw_clock'] (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)

    • Boolean. Defaults to false. On *nix-based systems, forces the 'hwclock --systohc' command to be issued on every Chef-client run. This will sync the hardware clock to the system clock.
    • Not available on Windows.
  • ntp['restrict_default']

  • ntp["listen_network"] / ntp["listen"]

    • String, optional attribute. Default is for NTP to listen on all addresses.
    • ntp["listen_network"] should be set to 'primary' to listen on the node's primary IP address as determined by ohai, or set to a CIDR (eg: '192.168.4.0/24') to listen on the last node address on that CIDR.
    • ntp["listen"] can be set to a specific address (eg: '192.168.4.10') instead of ntp["listen_network"] to force listening on a specific address.
    • If both ntp["listen"] and ntp["listen_network"] are set then ntp["listen"] will always win.
  • ntp["ignore"]

    • Array, interface names to ignore from listening. Can be used to disable listening wildcard interfaces (eg: ['wildcard', '::1']), can be combined with ntp["listen"]
  • ntp["statistics"]

    • Boolean. Default to true. Enable/disable statistics data logging into ntp['statsdir'].
    • Not available on Windows.

Usage

default recipe

Set up the ntp attributes in a role. For example in a base.rb role applied to all nodes:

name 'base'
description 'Role applied to all systems'
default_attributes(
  'ntp' => {
    'servers' => ['time0.int.example.org', 'time1.int.example.org']
  }
)

Then in an ntpserver.rb role that is applied to NTP servers (e.g., time.int.example.org):

name 'ntp_server'
description 'Role applied to the system that should be an NTP server.'
default_attributes(
  'ntp' => {
    'servers'      => ['0.pool.ntp.org', '1.pool.ntp.org'],
    'peers'        => ['time0.int.example.org', 'time1.int.example.org'],
    'restrictions' => ['10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 nomodify notrap']
  }
)

The timeX.int.example.org used in these roles should be the names or IP addresses of internal NTP servers. Then simply add ntp, or ntp::default to your run_list to apply the ntp daemon's configuration.

windows_client recipe

Windows only. Apply on a Windows host to install the Meinberg NTPd client.

mac_os_x_client recipe

macOS only. Apply on a macOS host to configure NTP.
