Apache log entry timestamps disorder

Hi Forum,

i hope this fits in here…

Nagios did send me notifications, that one apache is down. Unreachable
via http.
Therefore I looked in the log files and see disordered entries like
this

Code:

1.2.3.4 - - [25/Dec/2011:04:02:00 +0100]

I think it’s some kind of a performance thing.
We do a backup of the database at this time of the web application’s db
(which is running on a different server)…
The backup starts at 04:00 and take about 15 minutes, which will match
the time when the apache log shows the above mentioned effects.

Now I’m just curious, if this is “normal”?
Is someone of you experiencing this behavior too?

Cheers,
Pascal
