IBM ValuePoint - Losing/Gaining time with Novell 3.11
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom:
PS/ValuePoint 6384/D, 6382/S or 6387/T systems attached to a server running Novell version 3.11 may exhibit a symptom of the system clock gaining or losing time.
Problem Isolation Aids:
The operating system clock gains or loses up to 2 hours per month. The CMOS clock (Configuration Utility) remains accurate. The failure does not occur on standalone systems. Advanced diagnostics run without errors.
Fix:
The failure is caused by the gradual loss of time experienced by the server due to missing clock ticks while the server is in Real Mode. The ValuePoint's system clock is updated from the server. A patch is available called SYNCTIME.NLM that is loaded onto the server. SYNCTIME.NLM is available in the 311PTD.EXE Fix Patch for Novell. It may be obtained from the Novell Support Group.
