Alarm level
Major.
Description
The internal UNIX kernel variable 1bolt is approaching the maximum possible variable of 248 days since the last reboot. If the system is not rebooted, several problems could occur when 1bolt reaches the maximum possible value. System timeouts could occur prematurely or fail to occur.
A reboot of the system should be scheduled to occur within the number of days specified or an automatic reboot will occur. By manually performing the reboot, it may be possible to reduce the impact service caused by the reboot.
Repair procedure
Reboot the system at a time of low system activity.
