Hi all,
Is there a ready made set of scripts for monitoring a bunch of NTP servers?
Preferably for generic unix/linux like ubuntu.
I imagine it would look something like:
1. measure data with a test machine, either use output of "ntpq -p" or
perhaps python and ntplib. Variable measurement interval, perhaps 60s or so.
2. store relevant data into RRDTool database (offsets, delay, jitter, etc)
3. produce graphs with RRDGraph, and possibly Alarms (e-mail?) if a server
goes offline or way out of sync.
thanks,
Anders

Anders,
I have some notes here:
http://www.satsignal.eu/ntp/NTPandMRTG.html
which I use (Perl and MRTG) on Windows to produce graphs like:
http://www.satsignal.eu/mrtg/performance_ntp.php
http://www.satsignal.eu/mrtg/performance_ntp-pn.php
for both Windows and Linux systems (and FreeBSD before that).
Perhaps the notes will be of use?
I also have a program to plot loopstats etc.

and a simple (non-precision) monitoring program for multiple servers:
