#3625 Make sure periodical tasks use randomization
Closed: cloned-to-github 3 years ago by pbrezina. Opened 6 years ago by jhrozek.

The ptask API already supports that the periodical task does not occur at exactly the same times, but with a random offset. But the vast majority of the periodical tasks doesn't use that. We should make sure to review whether they did.

This might be useful in environments like compute clusters where it's likely that all nodes are brough up at the same time - having the periodical tasks non-random might result in all nodes issuing updates at same time.


From sssd-devel discussion where Pavel noted:
However, we must make sure that randomized schedules still make sense (e.g. sudo smart refresh inteval << sudo full refresh interval).
