Can more than 1 NTP server be configured on the NodeGrid?

You can configure a NTP pool, which will request date and time from several NTP servers. In fact, that is the default configuration.


CLI

[admin@nodegrid date_and_time]# show /settings/date_and_time/

system time: Wed Jan 25 12:59:46 EST 2017

date_and_time = network_time_protocol

last_update: Wed Jan 25 12:59:10 2017 (24.248.217.23)

server = pool.ntp.org

zone = us|eastern


Web

System, Date and Time page:

Date and Time:
Auto via Network Time Protocol
Last update:Wed Jan 25 18:59:26 2017 (54.209.10.149)
Server:
Manual

You can also add another NTP server in the Server field, comma separated (no space)



To check the NTP servers you can run the commands (as root)

chronyc -n tracking or chronyc -n sources
