# timedatectl
reports System clock synchronized: no
even when NTP service: active
and # systemctl status chronyd
shows active (running)
, and the logs therein don't show anything like an error; I see for example "Using right/UTC timezone to obtain leap second data". This is a RHEL 8 system, the /etc/chrony.conf file is the default.
I expected to see System clock synchronized: yes
, which I think means the system is getting synchronized with the pool specified in /etc/chrony.conf. Maybe I'm missing something misinterpreting what this means?
Edit: Full # timedatectl
