You're quite right. For the benefit of others, here's the original log file
entry:
Mar 31 00:54:25 ldm1 208.180.46.165(noti)[24576] NOTE: Starting
> Up(6.11.7/5): 20150312170024.533 TS_ENDT {{CONDUIT,

I didn't notice the "Starting Up" field. My bad.
The "20150312170024.533" field isn't the creation-time of a data-product;
rather, it's the "from" time in the request from the notifyme(1) process
running on host "208.180.46.165". Downstream LDM processes such as
notifyme(1) specify "from" and "to" times in their request in order to
limit the interval over which they'll receive data. Typically, the "from"
time is an hour ago and the "to" time is the end-of-time.
I'd guess that the clock on that host needs some serious adjusting.
