As an example, if I wanted to ensure that the system clock is not altered while another process is running, I could do something like `touch /tmp/stop_chrony.lock` and then chrony will stop syncing until that file is removed. NTP sources can be switch to offline with the chronyc offline command. With chrony >= 4.4 you can add the noselect option to each source (NTP server or refclock) with the chronyc selectopts command, which will stop updates of the system clock while still polling the sources. -- Miroslav Lichvar -- To unsubscribe email chrony-users-request-kWFZVVI9zxvPqho9SqqRMmD2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org with "unsubscribe" in the subject.
