Josh Thompson commented on VCL-585:
-----------------------------------
This needs to be documented, but I'm going to lump that in with a subtask for
VCL-758.
> Migrate time source variable to variable table
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: VCL-585
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-585
> Project: VCL
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: database, vcld (backend), web gui (frontend)
> Reporter: Aaron Peeler
> Assignee: Aaron Peeler
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.4
>
>
> The Windows.pm had a the variable $time_source hardcoded to nist.gov or
> windows.com addresses.
> Linux.pm update ntp.conf file
> Convert code in the configure_time_synchronization to check for and use data
> from the variable table. If data does not exist, then use hardcoded value.
> Data in the variable table can be in the format:
> timesource|<FQDN of management node>
> or
> timesource|global
> FQDN of MN - can be if a centrally managed VCL needs to have different values
> Global if only using one management node, or all management nodes can use the
> same value.
> Database and Backend completed
