"dumponexit" chrony feature is missing from manual pages

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

There is introduction of dumponexit directive in official admin guide for RHEL7, however it is not found in chrony manual pages. Is dumponexit feature still supported?

System Administrator’s Guide RHEL7

dumponexit
    If this command is present, it indicates that chronyd should save the measurement history for each of its time sources recorded whenever the program exits. (See the dumpdir command above).

The following configuration in /etc/chrony.conf works as expected.

dumponexit
dumpdir /var/run/chrony

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.5 and later
  • chrony-3.2 and later
