PRVG-13606 : chrony daemon is not synchronized with any external time source on node "rac1".
The same configuration steps were completed successfully on Oracle Linux (OL) 8.4, so that I started looking for any changes. It turns out that the chronyc sources output was changed.
OL 8.5 with chrony-4.1-1.0.1.el8.x86_64:
[root@rac1 ~]# chronyc sources MS Name/IP address Stratum Poll Reach LastRx Last sample =============================================================================== ^* 169.254.169.123 3 7 377 10 -590ns[+4002ns] +/- 494us

The number of sources line is absent in OL 8.5.
There are two workarounds that can be used.
Use ORA_DISABLED_CVU_CHECKS
[grid@rac1 ~]$ ORA_DISABLED_CVU_CHECKS=TASKNTP cluvfy comp clocksync -n rac1 -verbose

Amend chronyc temporarily to produce the desired output
This is only to validate our hypothesis related to the cause of the validation error.
[root@rac1 ~]# mv /usr/bin/chronyc{,.orig}
[root@rac1 ~]# vi /usr/bin/chronyc
[root@rac1 ~]# chmod a+x /usr/bin/chronyc

Conclusion
The requirement to have an external NTP server is questionable. There can be hardware clocks which chrony can use, such as TimeSync PTP service on Azure. This post demonstrates how to debug NTP issues during Grid Infrastructure installations and/or CVU checks. There is one generic method provided to work around such issues by setting ORA_DISABLED_CVU_CHECKS. If the issue is caused by Oracle utilities expecting certain output, then we might as well tweak system programs temporarily to produce the desired output.
