[OpenAFS-devel] vos status: Strange creation times

[Harald Barth]

Look at the following creation times reported by vos status for
transaction 3097758:

> afstemp1# /usr/openafs/sbin/vos status localhost -local
> Total transactions: 1
> --------------------------------------
> transaction: 3097758  created: Thu May  6 10:51:57 2010
> attachFlags:  busy 
> volume: 537084461  partition: /vicepe  procedure: Dump
> packetRead: 2  lastReceiveTime: 1273135986  packetSend: 830417  lastSendTime: 1273135986
> --------------------------------------
 
Some minutes later:

> afstemp1# /usr/openafs/sbin/vos status localhost -local
> Total transactions: 2
> --------------------------------------
> transaction: 3097767  created: Thu May  6 10:54:01 2010

The transaction 3097758 changes creation date to a date after the
transaction 3097767 which obviously is younger. As this is all
1.4.7 (yes, long uptime) it may be known and/or a fixed bug. Does
this ring a bell somewhere?
