BCM450 Time stuck on Jan. 2000 after hard drive replacement

[Nortel4Ever]

Just installed a multi-image drive on a 450 R6 to replace the original drive that failed. This is something I have done many times without incident but for some reason this time the BCM's time is stuck on Jan. 2000 and it can't be changed. When I change it using EM everything is fine until I hit enter or tab off the field and then the time reverts back right in front of me. Changing the time through SBA results in the same outcome. Patching the BCM to current and multiple reboots have not fixed anything.

Hi there, did you try to put BCM to get time from NTP or trunk?
what trunks do you have? ISDN should give time from network.
Also try to power down the system remove the power cable unplug the BFT and replace the battery.
How old is the system ( so the battery too).
Hope this helps , let us know how it goes.

regards

Nikos

Tried all of that and nothing works, I'll try getting into the Linux command line and changing the time/date there.

Do you have another disk to boot bcm and test the date?

Try setting it 24 hrs ahead.
Save.
Then reset it back to the correct time.
