Well, no.  As I said they are "remotes" and they are practically always
on.  They were not powered down when these jumps happened.  Logs would
look quite different if this would be the case.

One of these runs on a hardware which is about six-seven years old,
the newer one went into a service about two years ago.

I did spent quite a bit of time this morning trying to find out some
possible candidates for triggers but came back empty.  As I said - I am
not aware of anything of that sort happening ever before.  It is hard
to say anything about such, hopefully, rare event.  That is why I asked
if anybody else got hit by something like that.  As for this moment
both boxes maintain a very precise time.
