Hi,

today I took the usual look in LOG SUMMARY and was surprised finding this:

***SNAP***

I don't know exactly how do deal with this - does anyone has an idea
what this means?

Besides the machine is up and running with Core 159 / 64bit since 6 days
now and if I hadn't looked at the logs I would not have noticed it.

I didn't reboot or changed anything yet- should I do?

Best,
Matthias
