In my Linux distribution is enabled the service systemd-timesyncd.service.
Below it is shown the /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf file:
[Time]
#NTP=
#FallbackNTP=time1.google.com time2.google.com time3.google.com time4.google.com
#RootDistanceMaxSec=5
PollIntervalMinSec=32
#PollIntervalMaxSec=2048
and below I show the commands sequence that I need to understand (see this post for find the command):
####### stop synchronization with NTP server
$ timedatectl set-ntp false
####### Set tha datetime in the past
$ timedatectl set-time "2022-09-29 00:00:00"
####### restart synchronization with NTP server
$ timedatectl set-ntp true
immediately execution of the following command
$ date
The last command date (immediately executed after command timedatectl set-ntp true) gives the date and time already synchronized with the NTP Server.
Instead I had assumed that with the setting PollIntervalMinSec = 32 (see timesyncd.conf file) the NTP server is contacted after at least 32 seconds, but obviously this is not true.
Someone can help me to find the parameter of the /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf file that can set the delay before to connect the NTP server?
Thank you
