Two possibilities spring to mind:
   a)  the second system is much faster than the first,
        and is populating the sysORTable within the first second of operation

  b)  the second system does not support the sysORUpTime object

Is it just this table, or are you seeing this more widely?

The sysORTable was a nice idea that never really worked.
If that's the only thing that seems to be broken, then I wouldn't
worry too much about it.
