Hi, since I prefer systemd-timers over cron jobs (systemctl list-timers is great and they log automatically to journalctl), I created a service and a timer for it. I have no idea what would be the best way to create a pull-request for them, so I post them here:
When you create them yourself you can put them in /etc/systemd/system qubes-sync-clock.service [Unit] Description=This syncs the clock [Service] type=simpel ExecStart=/usr/bin/qvm-sync-clock [Install] WantedBy=default.target qubes-sync-clock.timer [Unit] Description=Sync the clock every 6 minutes [Timer] Persistent=false OnBootSec=15 OnCalendar=*:0/6 Unit=qubes-sync-clock.service [Install] WantedBy=timers.target When you have both files: systemctl start qubes-sync-clock.service systemctl enable qubes-sync-clock.service systemctl start qubes-sync-clock.timer systemctl enable qubes-sync-clock.timer When you want to see when the timer ran the last time and will run the next time: systemctl list-timers And when there is something to log, it is in the journal (journalctl) The interesting man-pages: * systemd.timer(5) * systemd.time(7) I have not that much experience with services/timers, so I just adapted what I use for my personal timers… Niels -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
