Description of problem:

    As an OpenShift admin deploying on bare metal nodes using static IPs in a disconnected environment, i.e, no DHCP, no access to external ntp servers, I need the ability to configure chrony and set the hardware BIOS clock during system installation.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

    4.16.z

How reproducible:

    Always

Steps to Reproduce:

    1. Deploy on bare metal nodes that do not have the correct BIOS clock time nor access to an external NTP server in a disconnected environment
    2.
    3.

Actual results:

    bare metal nodes installed many hours/days out of sync and no easy way to syncronize them as a day-2 operation.

Expected results:

    Ability to configure chrony to use a local ntp server in a disconnected environment.
