|
|
cdist-type__networktime - Generic time synchronization type
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This type is intended to be a simple abstraction over the various backends and
|
|
programs available for network time synchronization. This type only takes a
|
|
list of peers to synchronize to as argument, and then chooses an appropriate
|
|
backend depending on the operating system, configures, starts and enables it to
|
|
start on boot.
|
|
|
|
Currently, the following OSes are supported with the following backends:
|
|
|
|
- Alpine Linux: builtin busybox NTPd
|
|
- Debian/Ubuntu: systemd-timesyncd
|
|
|
|
|
|
REQUIRED MULTIPLE PARAMETERS
|
|
-------------------
|
|
peer:
|
|
The name or IP address of a peer to synchronize to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
