Warning: buffer(6),1: APT_BufferOperator warning

Post by Kirtikumar »

Hi, I was running a job and it generated following warning:

Code: Select all

buffer(6),1: APT_BufferOperator warning: newTime < startTime
I searched the forum and there are just two posts and no enough info in them.

Once of the job in my env was running for 150 mins yesterday and after that it finished with this warning.

When I ran the same job today, it finished within just 35 mins without any warning.

Any inputs?

[Edited to change the job type]

Is this really a server job?

This error can occur when the job runs through midnight. It's a bug. Contact your support provider.

But my job started on 14 Oct 07 at 16:20:36 and finished on the same day at 18:54:15 as per the logs.

So is this warning generated only in case a job runs thro' midnight or are there some other cases as well?
