Time in CustomPollerStaus off??

sotherls Jan 6, 2009 5:51 AM

Has anyone else seen this problem? I just noticed that the posted time in my CustomPollerStatus table is off by 6 hours. I checked and the servers (all three new Orion 9.1 SP2 and SP3 build servers) report the same anomoly.

I ran this query from SQL to see what it reports and can see the difference - not sure why. I have opened a case with Solarwinds but nothing yet?

select getdate()
select * from custompollerstatus
where datetime >'2009-01-06'
order by datetime desc

Results in:
2009-01-06 05:39:03.550

With 9.0, we started using UTC time for the status and statistics(on Universal Device Pollers). I'm pretty sure this is what you are seeing.

  Thank you! Finally an answer that makes sense... I guess technical support did not get the memo....
  In any case I modified my reports and queries to include the adjustment for the time change.
  dateadd(hour, -6, datetime) will adjust for the variance.
