Oracle logs have wrong timestamp

Linux-RAC-AdminOct 16 2012 — edited Oct 18 2012

My DBA is woking on a new install of EM12c on Oracle Grid Infrustructure on a Standalone server using ASM. She is experiencing issues with the Oracle Restart facility. This issue she is working through an Oracle SR.

Linux OS running OL6.2

I am the Linux Admin and while troubleshooting I found that the logs under $ORACLE_HOME/log appear to have incorrect time stamps within them.

For example -
#ls -la /oracle/OracleHomes/11.2/grid/log/bkvlnxgrid02/alertbkvlnxgrid02.log
-rw-rw---- 1 oracle oinstall 19915 Oct 16 09:12 /oracle/OracleHomes/11.2/grid/log/bkvlnxgrid02/alertbkvlnxgrid02.log

This is the correct system time.

But within the log the time is in the future by nine hours -

# tail /oracle/OracleHomes/11.2/grid/log/bkvlnxgrid02/alertbkvlnxgrid02.log
2012-10-16 18:12:19.918
[evmd(8286)]CRS-1401:EVMD started on node bkvlnxgrid02.

The /var/log/messages is correct, the Database system time is correct and /etc/sysconfig/clock timezone entry is correct.

Has anyone else noticed this issue?
