<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><filename>systemd-timedated.service</filename> is a system service
|
|
that may be used as a mechanism to change the system clock and
|
|
timezone, as well as to enable/disable network time synchronization.
|
|
<filename>systemd-timedated</filename> is automatically activated
|
|
on request and terminates itself when it is unused.</para>

|
|
|
<para>The tool
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>timedatectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>

|
is a command line client to this service.</para>

<title>List of network time synchronization services</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>systemd-timesyncd</command> will look for files with a <literal>.list</literal> extension
|
|
in <filename>ntp-units.d/</filename> directories. Each file is parsed as a list of unit names, one per
|
|
line. Empty lines and lines with comments (<literal>#</literal>) are ignored. Files are read from
|
|
<filename>/usr/lib/systemd/ntp-units.d/</filename> and the corresponding directories under
|
|
<filename>/etc/</filename>, <filename>/run/</filename>, <filename>/usr/local/lib/</filename>. Files in
|
|
<filename>/etc/</filename> override files with the same name in <filename>/run/</filename>,
|
|
<filename>/usr/local/lib/</filename>, and <filename>/usr/lib/</filename>. Files in
|
|
<filename>/run/</filename> override files with the same name under <filename>/usr/</filename>. Packages
|
|
should install their configuration files in <filename>/usr/lib/</filename> (distribution packages) or
|
|
<filename>/usr/local/lib/</filename> (local installs).</para>
|
|
|
|
<example>
|
|
<title><filename>ntp-units.d/</filename> entry for <command>systemd-timesyncd</command></title>

<programlisting># /usr/lib/systemd/ntp-units.d/80-systemd-timesync.list

systemd-timesyncd.service

|
|
|
|
<para>If the environment variable <varname>$SYSTEMD_TIMEDATED_NTP_SERVICES</varname> is set,
|
|
<command>systemd-timesyncd</command> will parse the contents of that variable as a colon-separated list
|
|
of unit names. When set, this variable overrides the file-based list described above.</para>

<example>
|
|
<title>An override that specifies that <command>chronyd</command> should be used if available</title>
