PIX/ASA uptime

Hello gurus,

Please help me out here. I do not have access to any spare PIX(s) so cannot
test this for now.

Is there a way to determine real uptime on PIX running 6.3.5 in a HA setup?
What I see is that even though the standby might have rebooted it still shows
the same uptime as the Active unit.

I am reviewing the access-list hitcnt essentially to determine how old are the
access-list counters. I would rely on sh uptime from the "sh ver" command but
I am reluctant to trust it now that I know the standby has rebooted before the
265 days listed as the uptime value.

Also, can someone please tell me if the hitcnt on access-list on the Primary
PIX replicate to the Standby in case there is a failover?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Muhammad
