Sync Real Time Clock (RTC)

1

Hello,

I am trying to synchronize the rtc.
Currently, I have added ntp and tzdata (set timezone) to the linux distribution to synchronize time automatically when a internet connection (mobile network) is available (I have added the TIME_SERVICES=“qcom_time ntpd_time” in time_zone.conf).
My ntp.conf looks like this:

tinker panic 0
server 0.pool.ntp.org
server 1.pool.ntp.org
server 2.pool.ntp.org
server 3.pool.ntp.org

But is there a better way to synchronize the time with the legato framework without explicitly installing ntp?
Thanks!

Hi white_fish,

ntpd should be available in default image, we can use “/usr/sbin/ntpd -p pool.ntp.org” to trigger time sync after data connection available.

seems to me this should have a start script… or setting the rtc time via a mobile connection if one exists
logic says if i dont have a mobile connection i should run ntp which feels like the logical way to do this
