Re: DST Helper

So, if I'm not syncing to an external time source, do I still have to change 
the time on V5R3+   ??

I have a CLP which I used on V5R2 to change QHOUR to QHOUR - 1 in the fall . 
. . it used to change QUTCOFFSET also but I have removed that for V5R3 . . . 
Is V5R3 now smart enough to change the time by itself?

Thanks,

Steve

Note that QUTCOFFSET is not a changeable system value as of V5R3.

Here are the commands I'm using to help me stay out and party longer on
Saturday night on the last weekend of this month and NOT receive any
phone calls.

As long as Outlook doesn't totally screw-up the formatting you should be
able to paste these beauties right in to a QCMD screen depending on your
timezone and choice of replication software.  YMMV, but it'll save you
some time if you have systems that don't automatically do it for you.
Test it if you have a test LPAR!  Don't blame me if it doesn't work on
your box, but I've been using these for a long time and just got done
putting them on 15 systems.  Make sure they're SAVE(*NO) or you'll
relive that hour over and over and over and over.  ;)  Mountain or
Pacific people, you can modify 3 or 4 to do what you need - I don't have
any machines in those zones.

1 - if using IBM's SupportLine SNTP client
ADDJOBSCDE JOB(DST_ENDNTP) CMD(ENDSBS SBS(QZRDSNTP) OPTION(*IMMED))
FRQ(*ONCE) SCDDATE('10/29/2006') SCDTIME('01:50:00')

2 - if using Mimix with no RJ
ADDJOBSCDE JOB(DST_MMX1) CMD(MIMIX/ENDDG DGDFN(*ALL)) FRQ(*ONCE)
SCDDATE('10/29/2006') SCDTIME('01:55:00') TEXT('DST: End Mimix')

3 - systems on eastern time currently -0400

7 - start Mimix (no matter if RJ or not)
