ntpdate Cookbook

Installs ntpdate and configures it to run as a scheduled job.(Although it later uses the ntpdate-debian binary, see man ntpdate).
The reason for this one may found after struggling to sync the time via NTP daemon without exposing the external network interface to the world.

By default the cookbook will remove NTP package (if installed).

Requirements

Nothing really special. It depends on the opscode's cron cookbook in order to lay the cronjob.

Attributes

Key Type Description Default
['ntpdate']['enable'] Boolean enable or disable ALL actions true
['ntpdate']['use_ntp_config'] String whether to use the ntp.conf file config 'no'
['ntpdate']['config_folder'] String Where lays the config file '/etc/default'
['ntpdate']['config_file'] String Config file name 'ntpdate'
['ntpdate']['ntp_servers'] StringArray Which time servers to sync from %w(pool.ntp.org)
['ntpdate']['ntp_options'] String Additional options for ntpdate nil
['ntpdate']['package_name'] StringArray Which packages to install %w(ntpdate)
['ntpdate']['crontab_file'] String Crontab file name to create in /etc/cron.d directory ntpdate
['ntpdate']['ntp_pkg_remove'] Boolean Defines if the NTP packet should be removed true
['ntpdate']['ntp_pkg_name'] String NTP Package name ntp

For the [:ntpdate][:crontab] directives check the cron cookbook from opscode.

Usage

ntpdate::default

{
  "name":"my_node",
  "ntpdate": {
    "ntp_servers": %w{ntp1.somedomain.com ntp2.somedomain.com},
    "crontab": {
        "comment": "This Cron sets time on Sundays at 6:00 O'clock",
        "minute": "0",
        "hour":   "6",
        "day":    "7"
    }
  },
  "run_list": [
    "recipe[ntpdate]"
  ]
}

disabling ALL actions

but leaving the recipe in run_list() and the role configuration (sometimes is useful). This will remove all the configuration files the cookbook normally creates but will leave the packages as they are (actual stand).

{
  "name":"my_node",
  "ntpdate": {
   "enable": false
    "ntp_servers": %w{ntp1.somedomain.com ntp2.somedomain.com},
    "crontab": {
        "comment": "This Cron sets time on Sundays at 6:00 O'clock",
        "minute": "0",
        "hour":   "6",
        "weekday": "sun"
    }
  },
  "run_list": [
    "recipe[ntpdate::default]"
  ]
}
