Monitors the system variables of the local ntpd
daemon (optional incl. variables of the polled peers) using the NTP Control Message Protocol via UDP socket, similar to ntpq
, the standard NTP query program.
NTPv4
Local interrogation allowed in /etc/ntp.conf
(default):
# Local users may interrogate the ntp server more closely.
restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict ::1
It produces:
system
peers
Edit the python.d/ntpd.conf
configuration file using edit-config
from the Netdata config
directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata
.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/ntpd.conf
Sample:
update_every: 10
host: 'localhost'
port: '123'
show_peers: yes
# hide peers with source address in ranges 127.0.0.0/8 and 192.168.0.0/16
peer_filter: '(127\..*)|(192\.168\..*)'
# check for new/changed peers every 60 updates
peer_rescan: 60
Sample (multiple jobs):
Note: ntp.conf
on the host otherhost
must be configured to allow queries from our local host by including a line like restrict <IP> nomodify notrap nopeer
.
local:
host: 'localhost'
otherhost:
host: 'otherhost'
If no configuration is given, module will attempt to connect to ntpd
on ::1:123
or 127.0.0.1:123
and show charts for the systemvars. Use show_peers: yes
to also show the charts for configured peers. Local peers in the range 127.0.0.0/8
are hidden by default, use peer_filter: ''
to show all peers.
