Issue/Introduction

Data on dashboards goes past the current time and into the future

Environment

Any CAPM version

Resolution

In this instance the java processes on the data aggregator never got the updated time from when chrony fixed it. 
We knew this by checking the /opt/IMDataAggregator/data/performance-spool directory.  This is the incoming polled data. 
The files had a current time but looking at the ifstats_rate file it had time stamps that were in the future

Cycling the data collector resolved the issue:

• service dcmd stop
• service dcmd start

Additional Information

Notes

• Polled data is collected based on the data collector time stamps
• CAPC displays the data based on the user's timezone setting
