Are we just adding this package so that one who want to play with openshift-ansible can use it? Or what is the goal here?

gbraad commented 6 years ago

I think having ntpdate in general would be a good thing, as it can elevate some of the issues we had with clock being out of sync

I get to the trouble with time when I was testing Prometheus deployment on minishift. Prometheus is quite time sensitive application. It(prometheus) was reported to me about a significant time difference on the server. I'm using minishift with xhyve driver on OSX. After a week or so work in suspend/resume mode I've got more than an hour time difference.

gbraad commented 5 years ago

This is actually an issue with xhyve when you hibernate the machine when a Minishift instance is running. While ntp could help with this, actually the VM should be able to sync time with the host. If I remember correctly it has been filed upstream too (and also as an issue on Minishift and Minikube's end)

@minishift/minishift-dev WDYT? even we add the package, we would still have to run this as a service on an interval.
