Y2K Hiccup?
1998-09-22 09:12:07
Hello All,
We had a little hiccup with Y2K tests a couple of days ago that resulted
(maybe) in a little strange behaviour from ADSM.
ADSM was running quite happily (v2.1.5.18, AIX 4.2, RS6000). A Box on the
network was having some Y2K tests done on it and due to some simple oversight
(nobody realised that it was keeping all of the other RS6000's clocks in sync
with its own, apparently) When the date was set to 28/2/2000 23:45:00, all of
the other RS6000's suddenly decided to change there date too.n (Fun! Fun Fun!)
From what I remember this caused ADSM to lose its activity log records, event
status etc..
After a couple of days I noticed that the activity log retention had changed
from 14 days to 1 day. Nothing else seems to have been altered by the date
jump, just the actlogretention period.
We have only 1 live server at the moment that cant be bought down, I was
wondering if this is an effect that was known about or if anyone can reproduce
it.
Matthew.
