I have a customer that I added a system board to his v490 (running Solaris 9) yesterday. When we booted back up I noticed his system was an hour off and mentioned it to him. He said he had used the date command to correct the time just last week. He also mentioned that he has a couple other systems doing the same thing. I asked about a time server and he said he has one but has not configured the systems to use it.

I did some looking last night and only found 1 bug on sunsolve on this. The doc basically had only a couple lines but basically stated when a guest reboots the system the date is held, but when the sc is reset the date reverts back. The workaround for this only showed something that looked like an alom firmware.

Has anyone run into this issue? Has anyone changed the system date using the sc or scadm command?


I will be checking his ALOM firmware today. Possibly updateing it if behind.

Thanks
