SolutionYou should see it in startup as...
:
%SYSINIT-I-CLUSTER, cluster/lock manager initialization
%SYSINIT-I-OPEN, opening incarnation file
%SYSINIT-I-CREPRC, creating the STACONFIG
:
I think it just has the 64 bit incarnation number, which in turn is a binary date&time.
Monitor cluster can show that.
The file is marked NOMOVE, so it could be used with non-filesystem Logical block IO.
fwiw,
Hein.

Re: "sys$incarnation" ?
Why would you want to mess with it?

Re: "sys$incarnation" ?
The SYS$INCARNATION.DAT file is the storage for the cluster incarnation number and some related baggage. It's also a /NOMOVE file, which usually means there's a kernel-level access made or some other similar core access is made to the file.
I'd suggest you not mess with it.
Here are some details:
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/support/asktima/operating_systems/0095BFFD-100853A0-1C0097.html
The file is not found at boot-time, it will be recreated.
