FILEAGE rule

JoseJose
I'm trying to set up a FILEAGE rule, but I'm getting strange return values.



For example, I create a new file. I set up a FILEAGE rule and then do a test.... The file was created approximately TWO minutes ago, but the FILEAGE returns a value of 25300 seconds.



Is this supposed to return the age of the file in seconds, or is it something different?



... currently running 7.5.5



Thanks!

  • I noticed that the "counter" for any file starts at 25200 seconds (7 hours). So, a brand new file would start with an "age" of 25200 seconds.



    Possible issue with time zones?

    Thank you for the feedback. I will pass it on to our developers.



    Assuming your comment is correct, I would just add the 25200 to any timing.
  • Yes, I'm adding 25200 to the FILEAGE rules I'm creating and it works. I'm just worried about having to go back and reconfigure all the rules on the next DST switch.
  • Any news on whether this will be addressed? With the DST change coming up in November 4, it'd be nice not to have to go reconfigure all our FILEAGE rules.
