Update

Update NTP configuration on a target host. The server list is rewritten to /etc/chrony/conf.d/osapi-ntp.conf and chrony is reloaded immediately. Fails if NTP configuration is not currently managed -- use create first:

$ osapi client node ntp update --target web-01 \
    --servers ntp.example.com

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  STATUS  CHANGED  ERROR
  ok      true

If the server list is already identical, changed: false is returned and the file is not rewritten:

$ osapi client node ntp update --target web-01 \
    --servers ntp.example.com

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  STATUS  CHANGED  ERROR
  ok      false

Broadcast to all hosts at once:

$ osapi client node ntp update --target _all \
    --servers 0.pool.ntp.org --servers 1.pool.ntp.org

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  HOSTNAME  STATUS   CHANGED  ERROR
  web-01    ok       true
  web-02    ok       true
