RE: Daylight Saving Change

Just wanted to point out that you'll probably want to change QUTCOFFSET to
keep GMT time correct. If you do any email from your AS400 where the send
time is important, you'll want to do this.

If you can't do that, it's news to me. We have have job schedule entry set
to run at 1:00am that runs this command:

CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QHOUR) VALUE('02')

and have never had a problem.

I'm assuming you could do the same thing with QUTCOFFSET, but we never
bother with it.

If it doesn't work for you, it could be an authority issue.  Make sure the
User Profile adding it has lots.
