As user not familiar with command line options, I want to be able to configure time source not only from arguments but also by an interactive prompt so that configuration of time servers/pool is not "hidden" from users.
FreeIPA installation is unable to set time servers/pool when run without NTP related options.
As the FreeIPA server is no longer a NTP service providing instance its clients and replicas configuration of time service can not be configured easily as it was before. Before change to chrony every new instance could be configured using master FQDN or autodiscovery for DNS record. This record is not created by default, and using FQDN would make no difference because every FreeIPA instance is only chrony client now.
Please wait until the prompt is returned.
Synchronizing time No SRV records of NTP servers found and no NTP server or pool address was provided. Using default chrony configuration. Attempting to sync time with chronyc. Process chronyc waitsync failed to sync time! Unable to sync time with chrony server, assuming the time is in sync. Please check that 123 UDP port is opened, and any time server is on network. Warning: IPA was unable to sync time with chrony! Time synchronization is required for IPA to work correctly Configuring directory server (dirsrv). Estimated time: 30 seconds
I would expect that there is way to configure it interactively.
