Attributes

Recommended tunables

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)
- Array, should be a list of local NTP peers. For more information, see Designing Your NTP Network at support.ntp.org.
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']
- String. Defaults to 'kod notrap nomodify nopeer noquery'. Set to 'ignore' to further lock down access.
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.
ntp['conf_restart_immediate']
- Boolean. Defaults to false. Restarts NTP service immediately after a config update if true. Otherwise it is a delayed restart.
ntp['peer']['disable_tinker_panic_on_virtualization_guest'] (applies to virtualized hosts only)
- Boolean. Defaults to true. Sets tinker panic to 0. NTP default it 1000. (See http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/resources/238 p. 23 for explanation on disabling panic) (Note: this overrides ntp['tinker']['panic'] attribute)
ntp['peer']['use_iburst'] (applies to NTP Servers ONLY)
- Boolean. Defaults to true. Enables iburst in peer declaration.
ntp['peer']['use_burst'] (applies to NTP Servers ONLY)
- Boolean. Defaults to false. Enables burst in peer declaration.
ntp['peer']['minpoll'] (applies to NTP Servers ONLY)
- Boolean. Defaults to 6 (ntp default). Specify the minimum poll intervals for NTP messages, in seconds to the power of two.

- String. Defaults to emtpy string. The server from ntp['servers'] to prefer getting the time from.
ntp['server']['use_iburst'] (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)
- Boolean. Defaults to true. Enables iburst in server declaration.
ntp['server']['use_burst'] (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)
- Boolean. Defaults to false. Enables burst in server declaration.
ntp['server']['minpoll'] (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)
- Boolean. Defaults to 6 (ntp default). Specify the minimum poll intervals for NTP messages, in seconds to the power of two.
ntp['server']['maxpoll'] (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)
- Boolean. Defaults to 10 (ntp default). Specify the maximum poll intervals for NTP messages, in seconds to the power of two.
ntp['tinker']['allan']
- Number. Defaults to 1500 (ntp default). Specifies the Allan intercept, which is a parameter of the PLL/FLL clock discipline algorithm, in seconds.
ntp['tinker']['dispersion']
- Number. Defaults to 15 (ntp default). Specifies the dispersion increase rate in parts-per-million (PPM).
ntp['tinker']['panic']
- Number. Defaults to 1000 (ntp default). Specifies the panic threshold in seconds. If set to zero, the panic sanity check is disabled and a clock offset of any value will be accepted.
ntp['tinker']['step']
- Number. Defaults to 0.128 (ntp default). Specifies the step threshold in seconds. If set to zero, step adjustments will never occur. Note: The kernel time discipline is disabled if the step threshold is set to zero or greater than 0.5 s.
ntp['tinker']['stepout']
- Number. Defaults to 900 (ntp default). Specifies the stepout threshold in seconds. If set to zero, popcorn spikes will not be suppressed.
ntp['localhost']['noquery'] (applies to NTP Servers and Clients)
- Boolean. Defaults to false. Set to true if using ntp < 4.2.8 or any unpatched ntp version to mitigate CVE-2014-9293 / CVE-2014-9294 / CVE-2014-9295
ntp['tos']['maxdist']
- Number. Defaults to 1 (ntp default). Specifies the tos maxdist value in seconds. Where the remote ntp server is a Windows domain controller, this value can be set to 30.
ntp['orphan']['enabled']

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.

Remove support for debian-8 / debian-9 / debian-10 / oraclelinux-7 / opensuse-leap-15
Adds support for debian-11 / debian-12

Redhat removed support for ntp in favor of chrony: (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_8/index#time-synchronization_infrastructure-services)

since debian bookworm the ntp user is ntpsec (i expect debian will continue to use this in all later versions)

for debian / redhat based os'es there is a leap-second file, prefer to use this.

updated changelog file, removed links to tickets.opscode.com as the markdown link check failed
