Description

In rare cases, the logserver may run into a deadlock preventing it from inserting data into system tables. As a result, auditing entries and statistics tables are not updated and do not show the latest data.
You can identify this by querying any *_LAST_DAY tables and checking the timestamp of the most recent entry.

Workaround

Restart the database.

Fix

Auditing entries and statistics tables always show the latest data.
