We're talking two different types of time adjustment here... With V5R3 there is support through *TIMZON objects for the system to automatically adjust local system time due to daylight saving time observation. This works with any hardware base running V5R3. With V5R3 there is also support to speed up or slow down the clock (called time adjustment). From the Information Center -- Prior to time adjustments, you could manually change the system time using the time of day system value. For example, if you wanted to set the system time backward three minutes, you would manually change the time of day system value from 3:00:00 (HH:MM:SS) to 2:57:00. By doing this, the system time from 2:57:00 to 3:00:00 is repeated. This can cause problems for applications recording time. To avoid these types of problems, you can use a time adjustment to change the system time and time will not be skipped or repeated. Adjusting the clock means to incrementally speed up or slow down the clock so that time is gradually adjusted to the desired time value. Adjusting does not cause large jumps in time that can be experienced with setting the clock with the time of day system value. However, adjusting does take time to complete because it is not a single, instantaneous change to the clock. For example, adjusting the clock by 1 second could take 10 seconds of real time to complete. It is this form of time adjustment that is only available on newer hardware models.

Do a search in infocenter on "time adjustment" and click the first result - you get a page which says: ---- To make time adjustments, you must be using a version of OS/400 V5R3 or later with V4R5 or later hardware. ---- I knew I read it somewhere.

Like it wouldn't work on a 7xx?
