Uptime showing wrong info

[ravi channavajhala]

No surprise there, the uptime wraps around every 497 days.  What in the
world are you doing with RHEL 3.0 anyway, this is on kernel 2.4 and the
problem of jiffies wrapping around is well known.

Subject: Uptime showing wrong info

 

Hello

 

We have server with RHEL 3.0 Up6 and up for 496 days.

Till 22 July 09 it was showing 496 days up in uptime command But on 23 July
09 uptime is showing is 1 days up.

We have not rebooted the Server.

 

Any ideas why uptime is showing 1 days instead showing 497 days up?

 

Please help me to understand this....
