SysUptime failed

[mfortes]

Hi,


It has happened a few times here in my environment, of some machines accusing RESTART saying that their uptime has been reset. In the item SysUptime the machine is really with the Uptime reset, but when checking, the machines are with Uptime very high ... Is that a mistake? Do you have any other more reliable keys for this?

Hi, sysUpTime is a 32-bit counter and it starts again from zero at about 497 days.

If you want to differentiate the wrapping case from a reboot, you can try adding an expression to the trigger so that it also checks if the previous value is not within some sensible short distance from the max value (2^32). The exact configration will of course depend on your actual current item and trigger configuration.
