NAME

systemd-time-wait-sync.service, systemd-time-wait-sync − Wait until kernel time is synchronized

SYNOPSIS

systemd−time−wait−sync.service

/usr/lib/systemd/systemd−time−wait−sync

DESCRIPTION

systemd−time−wait−sync is a system service that delays the start of units that depend on time−sync.target until the system time has been synchronized with an accurate time source by systemd−timesyncd.service.

systemd−timesyncd.service notifies on successful synchronization. systemd−time−wait−sync also tries to detect when the kernel marks the time as synchronized, but this detection is not reliable and is intended only as a fallback for other services that can be used to synchronize time (e.g., ntpd, chronyd).

FILES

/run/systemd/timesync/synchronized

The presence of this file indicates to this service that the system clock has been synchronized.
