# timex.plugin
-This plugin monitors the system clock synchronization state on Linux nodes.
+This plugin monitors the system kernel clock synchronization state.
-This plugin creates two charts:
+This plugin creates the following charts:
-- System clock synchronization state
-- Computed time offset between local system and reference clock
+- System clock synchronization state according to the system kernel
+- System clock status which gives the value of the `time_status` variable in the kernel
+- Computed time offset between local system and reference clock
+
+This is obtained from the information provided by the [ntp_adjtime()](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/adjtimex.2.html) system call.
+An unsynchronized clock may indicate a hardware clock error, or an issue with UTC synchronization.
