  • 1.  nmon - shows weird dates (2111) in .nmon files since TL12 upgrade

    Hi All,

    I've just noticed that all my NMON reports are showing a wrong date in the .nmon files since I updated to TL12. Did anyone else notice this ?

    My nmon2web.pl script is not generating the daily reports since then. It's the following entry that seems to be the problem:

    server_name_20111202_24hr.nmon:ZZZZ,T0288,00:00:38,03-NOV-2111

    As you can see, this file was generated on December 2nd, but the date shows up as 03-NOV-2111.
    Then.. when the script tries to parse that date, it hits the 2038 bug.

    Anyone seen this ??

    Thanks.

    Frank.

    Hi,

    I think I'll open a PMR with IBM to see if they're aware that NMON generates wrong dates in the .nmon output files.

    I'll update this thread when I get more info from them.

    Thanks,

    We are noticing the same issue with the ZZZZ entries of the nmon outputs.

    On December 30th they had '2111' for the date, and now (Jan 4th) it looks like this: 'ZZZZ,T0001,08:38:03,04- -2112'

    I've checked the $TZ variable and that is set to "EST5EDT" and the system date is correct.

    We are on AIX 5.3 TL11 SP8. nmon -version returns "nmon version TOPAS-NMON build AIX"
    We are actually just starting to use nmon2web, B.Spencer dose not know what it is either.

    Don`t know why efix isn`t already published.
