IC95737: IBM Systems Director shows duplicate events or historical events as new

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• IBM Systems Director (ISD) may display events from hardware
  managed by an Integrated Management Module (IMM) multiple times
  or historical events will be displayed as current.
  
  Old events from IMM managed hardware may display in the active
  status, problems or event log view as new events.  A single
  event may result in multiple event entries.
  
  Impact:
  
  ISD may not give an accurate view of IMM hardware events.
  

Local fix

• If ISD is displaying old events as new events for an IMM, the
  IMM may be removed from ISD, rediscovered and unlocked.  An old
  event example is, ISD is displaying an event arrived in June,
  while the event details show the event happened in March.
  

Problem summary

• When a Chassis Management Module (CMM) does a fail over to
  another CMM, ISD IMM event information may become wrong.   The
  result will be ISD may report the same event multiple times or
  events with old timestamps will get displayed as new events.
  
  Platforms:  All ISD servers with IMM endpoints
  Versions:  6.3.1-6.3.3.1
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

• Please contact IBM Support and reference this APAR for further
  options.
