I installed a 4.11 server yesterday. When I finished I noticed that the time

Now the server keeps posting this every two minutes:
7-01-97   9:32:31 am:    DS-5.73-12
    Synthetic Time is being issued on partition "TEST_TREE."
Please help me to turn it off.

In your opinion, and I think I might know your answer, if someone is
running a pretty straightforward 3.11 system with no more than 50 users
running one server, possible two in a year from now, are there any
significant or performance advantages upgrading to 4.xx?
I feel your answer would be to leave well enough alone, and you are
probably right. Part of me feels that I should try to get us as
current as possible.  Heck, I haven't even applied patches in over
two years because everything has 'worked'!

NT has it's own Novell client (which I'm using with a 3.11 server) or
you can find Novell's client for NT at Novell's website.  Novell's is a
bit more sophisiticated, and if you have programs that verify the user's
login password, this client is a MUST.  The NT client will NOT work with
those passwords.

Write your reply.

assistant: Hello All!
   I am working in a shop that runs 5 servers 7x24x365 and they DON'T want a
second of down time on any of them, unscheduled or scheduled...hahaha  One
server in particular, a Compaq Proliant 4500, smp, 256Meg, 8 Gigs, keeps on
getting Abends on any NLM that I load that needs to see and manage users or
files that the users have open, such as Sqlmon or Brtmon.  They will just
hang and also cause the console prompt to go away and also during this time
the server comes up with a Page Fault from the NCC.NLM in Threads.nlm .  Once
this happens the only thing I can do is to kill the power and hope for the
best when I Vrepair and bring the server back on-line.
   The NCC is an nlm that is for a Frye utility that I use for Hot backups
using Arcserve and I have the newest version of the nlm.
   Novell has patches for 4.10 BUT does not support SMP so these are of no
use to me.  So the Abends keep on happening and my MIS Manager keeps on
telling me he wants me to tell him the root cause of the problem is.  Right!
   I have run hardware tests and they all indicate that the machine is
working fine and has no problems.
   I have been told that 4.11 might take care of the problems but unless I
can come up with that 4.11 "Will absolutely" take care of the problems they
won't purchase it.
   The biggest problem with the server abending is that our 4Gig+ Btrieve
data base gets corupt or at least some of the Data files that are 250Meg+.
Very timely to repair and if they can not be repaired it's back to the backup
tape. This of course looses all data that got input since the backup each
night at 7PM
  SO are there any words of wisdom or suggestions to my problem ? Would 4.11
fix it ?  if more details are needed I will provide that info.
Thanks
