Time values are based on the time(3) subroutine, which can also be affected
by
anyone explicitly resetting the system clock. Of course, such an event would
also be visible on regular syslog timestamps etc.
Is ldapd's uptime using time() minus some fixed value? Why not using the POSIX
CLOCK_MONOTONIC value instead.
Actually you gave a clue: the slapd is running in a VM, and the VM had been live-migrated.
Maybe the glitch originated from there.
