Example monitoring graphs and criteria might be those done by pool.ntp.org: http://www.pool.ntp.org/scores/71.191.185.32
I believe they send out E-mails to server owners based on criteria. I don't personally agree with all of the details of their criteria, it seems to be oriented more towards one-shot ntpdate type usage, rather than long-term ntpd type source selection. But of course ntpd has its own peer selection criteria, that I favor myself: https://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/html/select.html Tim N3QE On Wed, Aug 26, 2015 at 3:47 AM, Anders Wallin <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > Is there a ready made set of scripts for monitoring a bunch of NTP servers? > Preferably for generic unix/linux like ubuntu. > > I imagine it would look something like: > 1. measure data with a test machine, either use output of "ntpq -p" or > perhaps python and ntplib.
