Chrony monitoring with Netdata

Monitors the precision and statistics of a local chronyd server, and produces:

• frequency
• last offset
• RMS offset
• residual freq
• root delay
• root dispersion
• skew
• system time

Requirements

Verify that user Netdata can execute chronyc tracking. If necessary, update /etc/chrony.conf, cmdallow.

Configuration

Edit the python.d/chrony.conf configuration file using edit-config from the your agent's config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata.

cd /etc/netdata   # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/chrony.conf

Sample:

# data collection frequency:
update_every: 1

# chrony query command:
local:
  command: 'chronyc -n tracking'
