[slurm-users] ntpd or chrony?

[Lachlan Musicman]

Hi all,

As part of both Munge and SLURM, time synchronised servers are necessary.

I keep finding chrony installed and running and ntpd stopped. I turn chrony
off and restart/enable ntpd but every CentOS point update it seems to flip.

>From what I've read ntpd is better for always on devices, and chrony's been
created for devices with a more intermittent access to a time server/the
internet.

What are people's thoughts and what are people using?

cheers
L.

"The antidote to apocalypticism is *apocalyptic civics*. Apocalyptic civics
is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic
about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed
and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are
creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the
conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is
together. "
