Chrony service actions

This article describes the actions available for the Chrony service.

Check

The Check action verifies whether the settings of hosts, components, and related services match the requirements of the service, and whether the service itself works correctly.

You can find the action result and the process of its execution on the Jobs page.

Expand

The Expand action adds new hosts to a service.

NOTE

If you use the Monitoring service, call the Reconfigure and restart action of the Monitoring service after the Expand action is finished to ensure that metrics are collected from added hosts.

When you choose Expand, ADCM displays a dialog window to specify settings for the action.

Reconfigure & Restart

The Reconfigure & Restart action updates service configuration files with the configuration settings specified on the service Primary configuration tab. If a changed parameter requires a restart, the action restarts the service. If not, the Reconfigure & Restart action only reloads configuration.

If you make changes directly to the chrony.conf file, these changes will be lost.

Reinstall

The Reinstall action reinstalls the service. It checks installed files and overwrites files with incorrect content. The Reinstall action also installs missing files.
