Yes. > Is it somehow possible to know from outside (e.g. using chronyc or reading > log files, etc) when chrony has done with these 3 first synchronozations?

One possibility would be to count how many times has changed the "Ref time" field in chronyc tracking, e.g. repeating the command once per second. If you changed the number of updates in makestep from 3 to 1, you could just check if the Reference ID is not 0.0.0.0, or use the chronyc waitsync command. Another possibility is to enable the tracking log and count lines that don't have the 0.0.0.0 IP address. -- Miroslav Lichvar -- To unsubscribe email chrony-users-requ...@chrony.tuxfamily.org with "unsubscribe" in the subject.
