[Freeipmi-devel] SEL datestamp 01-Jan-1970?

[Won De Erick]

Hi Al,

I noticed the following erroneous datestamps when viewing SEL.

#ipmi-sel
144:08-Feb-2009 03:51:08:System Event System Event:Timestamp Clock Synch
164:08-Feb-2009 03:51:03:System Event System Event:Timestamp Clock Synch
184:08-Feb-2009 03:51:25:System Event System Event:OEM System Boot Event
....
444:01-Jan-1970 08:00:11:Power Supply Power Supply 2:Power Supply input lost 
(AC/DC)
464:01-Jan-1970 08:00:12:Power Unit Power Redundancy:Entered from 
Non-redundant:Insufficient Resources
484:01-Jan-1970 08:00:50:System Event System Event:Timestamp Clock Synch
504:10-Feb-2009 11:45:09:System Event System Event:Timestamp Clock Synch

I've replicated this to several machines. Though the CMOS battery could be the 
potential reason, I want to know if ipmi-sel is related to this, or has 
something to do with this.

Thanks,

Won
