If not then rectify and check.

HI Bernhard,

I did check the note 447839 and than restarted the application and databse system and now they are working allright. I didnt however use the SAPtimetrace executable file. However later I found out that my domain controller set the date to 01.01.1970 ( SAP Note 323954 refers to a situation like this.) Now if this has happened and one of the DB tables has an entry of 01.01.1970, the back up will fail and this will result in a data loss for today. As a backup will fail everyday from now on.

I understand that this may be due to a workprocess picking up the incorrect date? Is there any way I can find out a log of workprocess errors?

Also if the backup fails is there any way I can prevent from the data being lost.

Best,
