Hello Everyone,

One of our servers is showing a strange issue, let me paste
the output


Code:

root # uptime
4:37pm 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.04


Its been running since months but you can see after time
there isn't any output like up 191 days(s).

Even the who command with b and r option isn't giving any
output.


Code:


root # who -b
root #
root # who -r
root #


the date command displays correct output.

I am not sure but is it because someone has played with
utmpx and wtmpx files, is reboot the only solution we have.

Can anyone help us since we don't intend to reboot the
server for such a reason and also no one has complained till
yet.

Answer Posted / pandi

Better u can check with another server and copy the utmpx
and wtmpx file from there
