I suggest you do as Rob and David suggest, i.e. get yourself one or
more GPS-based Stratum 1 clocks, then define 4-6 primary servers which
use this/these GPS clocks plus a few internet servers as backup.
All the rest of your servers can then use the same ntp.conf file, with
a 'server a.b.c minpoll 4 iburst' line for each of your primary servers.
The last time I looked, the driver for a GPS clock automagically set
MINPOLL=4.
Yes, this is for the rest of the servers, i.e. all the client machines:
Since they are more or less local to at least a pair of the S1 servers,
and since I have plenty cpu and network resources available, I start the
secondary/client machines with minpoll4 and iburst, just so I can
minimize the time until first sync.
OK?
