Description Stephen John Smoogen 2002-05-02 21:27:06 UTC
Description of Problem:

After installing 7.3GOLD I am getting log messages from sysstat that cannot
append data to file

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

sysstat-4.0.3-2

How Reproducible:

I think the problem occured after I ran ntp and it changed the system clock.

Cannot append data to that file

Comment 1 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2002-05-02 21:29:53 UTC
Ok, so it's a once-occuring problem caused by timeshifting on the machine?
(guess thrice what I'll do if you confirm that ;)

Comment 2 Stephen John Smoogen 2002-05-02 22:17:12 UTC
What it looks like is that the sa02 file got mangled somehow. A reboot didnt fix
the problem. I had to remove the file and recreate it. I will see in the morning
if the problem re-occurs as ntp brings time in line.

Given the lack of feedback, it probably doesn't.
