14.7. NTP Toolkit

There are a number of utilities available to check if NTP is doing it's job. The ntpq -p command will print out your system's current time status.
# ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter
==============================================================================
*cudns.cit.corne ntp0.usno.navy.  2 u  832 1024  377   43.208    0.361   2.646

The ntpdc -c loopinfo will display how far off the system time is in seconds, based upon the last time the remote server was contacted.
# ntpdc -c loopinfo
offset:               -0.004479 s
frequency:            133.625 ppm
poll adjust:          30
watchdog timer:       404 s
	
ntpdc -c kerninfo will display the current remaining correction.
# ntpdc -c kerninfo
pll offset:           -0.003917 s
pll frequency:        133.625 ppm
maximum error:        0.391414 s
estimated error:      0.003676 s

pps frequency:        0.000 ppm
pps stability:        512.000 ppm
pps jitter:           0.0002 s
calibration interval: 4 s
calibration cycles:   0

A slightly more different version of ntpdc -c kerninfo is ntptime
# ntptime
ntp_gettime() returns code 0 (OK)
  time c35e2cc7.879ba000  Thu, Nov 13 2003 11:16:07.529, (.529718),
  maximum error 425206 us, estimated error 3676 us
ntp_adjtime() returns code 0 (OK)
  modes 0x0 (),
  offset -3854.000 us, frequency 133.625 ppm, interval 4 s,
  maximum error 425206 us, estimated error 3676 us,
  status 0x1 (PLL),
  time constant 6, precision 1.000 us, tolerance 512 ppm,
  pps frequency 0.000 ppm, stability 512.000 ppm, jitter 200.000 us,
  intervals 0, jitter exceeded 0, stability exceeded 0, errors 0.
Yet another way to see how well NTP is working is with the ntpdate -d command. This will contact an NTP server and determine the time difference but not change your system's time.
# ntpdate -d 132.236.56.250

If you want actually watch the system synchronize you can use ntptrace.
# ntptrace 132.236.56.250
cudns.cit.cornell.edu: stratum 2, offset -0.003278, synch distance 0.02779
truetime.ntp.com: stratum 1, offset -0.014363, synch distance 0.00000, refid 'ACTS'
If you need your system time synchronized immediately you can use the ntpdate remote-servername to force a synchronization. No waiting!
