I was asked to create a report showing the devices that have the longest uptime. I used the Last Boot time that SolarWinds reports and I was told this was not showing the correct dates.
For example, this Cisco 3800 stack shows an obvious discrepancy:
SolarWinds
LAST BOOT - Wednesday, February 22, 2023 7:10 AM
Console
"uptime is 6 years, 14 weeks, 2 days, 12 hours, 1 minute"
Has anybody else had this problem and found a workaround?
Apparently this time is from the SysUptime OID (1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3), which seems to be true as my value is currently 302 days.
I have seen an older article recommended using HrSysuptime OID (1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1), but this returns "not supported" in most cases.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
