ansible-systemd-timesyncd's Introduction

Build Status

Role Name

Ansible role to configure the systemd-timesyncd service setting S/NTP and timezone parameters.

Requirements

  • systemd >= 2.9
  • systemd-timesyncd.service unit
  • dbus

Role Variables

config:
  timezone: 'Africa/Libreville'
  ntp_servers:
    - 0.pool.ntp.org
    - 1.pool.ntp.org
    - 2.pool.ntp.org
    - 3.pool.ntp.org
  root_distance_max_sec: 5
  poll_interval_max_sec: 2048
  poll_interval_min_sec: 32

Also see defaults/main.yml for more information on these parameters.

Dependencies

  • Debian-based running systemd-timesyncd (NOTE: systemd on the Redhat family (RHEL/Fedora/CentOs) is not compiled with timesyncd for NTP synchronization and uses chrony instead)

Conflicts

This role will likely fail to succeed in configuring timesyncd if the following services are enabled/running on the system.

  • ntp/ntpd - reference implementation
  • chrony/chronyd

Example Playbook

- name: TC2 - Run ansible-systemd-timesyncd role
  hosts: localhost
  remote_user: root
  roles:
  - role: ansible-systemd-timesyncd
    config:
      timezone: 'Africa/Libreville'

Also see tests/ for how tests are run.

ansible-systemd-timesyncd's Issues

Misspellings in README.md

Very good work on this Ansible Role and Git Repo.

I found some misspellings in your readme.md.

In Dependencies section:
Debian-based running systemd-timesyncd (NOTE: systemd on the Redhat family (RHEL/Fedora/CentOs) is not compiled with timesyncd for NTP syncrhonization and uses chrony instelad)

Should be
Debian-based running systemd-timesyncd (NOTE: systemd on the Redhat family (RHEL/Fedora/CentOs) is not compiled with timesyncd for NTP synchronization and uses chrony instead)

Again, thanks for your hard work and contribution to Ansible, and Open Source.

Support for python3 required

It seems like we rely on python + pypa 2.x still.

DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021. More details about Python 2 support in pip can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support

"Assert systemd-timesyncd status" task fails

I have noticed that the task "timesyncd : Assert systemd-timesyncd status" from

ansible-systemd-timesyncd/tasks/tests.yml

Line 32 in f5db226

- name: Assert systemd-timesyncd status
fails on one of my hosts with the following error:

failed: [machine] (item={'regex': 'Started Network Time Synchronization', 'fail_msg': 'systemd-timesyncd does not appear to have started NTP Synchronization'}) => changed=false 
  ansible_loop_var: item
  assertion: timesyncd_status.stdout | regex_search("Started Network Time Synchronization")
  evaluated_to: false
  item:
    fail_msg: systemd-timesyncd does not appear to have started NTP Synchronization
    regex: Started Network Time Synchronization
  msg: systemd-timesyncd does not appear to have started NTP Synchronization

The output of sudo systemctl status systemd-timesyncd on the machine is:

● systemd-timesyncd.service - Network Time Synchronization
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-timesyncd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: active (running) since Tue 2021-11-30 00:13:23 CET; 3 weeks 1 days ago
       Docs: man:systemd-timesyncd.service(8)
   Main PID: 420 (systemd-timesyn)
     Status: "Initial synchronization to time server INTERNAL_IP:123 (INTERNAL_IP)."
      Tasks: 2 (limit: 4557)
     Memory: 1.3M
     CGroup: /system.slice/systemd-timesyncd.service
             └─420 /lib/systemd/systemd-timesyncd

Warning: journal has been rotated since unit was started, output may be incomplete.

everything is operating fine and yet the task asserts a failure. Perhaps it is not the most robust technique to try and regex-scrape the output of a shell command to try and look for logs of a service? I personally think this test can be removed.
