default value of ntp_timezone should be Etc/UTC #7
Comments
We discussed this a little during the last PR. I agree this is probably the best, most universal setting for the default value. I would recommend this change. |
Ditto. I was being quite midwest-US-centric in my default, but to be fair, I started the role for myself and never thought about other's needs :D |
Fixed by #9. |
No longer 🇺🇸-centric! |
And of course I forgot to close this issue... so closing it now, on the US Independence Day :) |
The default value for the
ntp_timezone
variable is set to America/Chicago in defaults/main.yml.I would suggest using
ntp_timezone: Etc/UTC
as the default.Etc/UTC is the default value for most server installations (et least for official Ubuntu images in AWS, also Rackspace and Linode Ubuntu installations) .
IMHO, Etc/UTC is also the most frequently used value from global point of view (a sysadmin having servers in multiple timezones).
