well the iSeries Timekeeper version has had several issues in the past with the 4500 clocks in general for us. Needless to say we tested everything we possibly could (given that we only have 2 test clocks a 480 & a 4500) and we had no issues but as you assuredly know...that's just not enough to get a true feel for what will happen when updating several hundreds of each model....oh well...just another day in the nuthouse....(hopefully no squirrels are listening) Thanks, Tommy Holden <lgoodbar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx 03/13/2007 01:14 PM Please respond to Midrange Systems Technical Discussion <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> cc Subject RE: How did DST go for you I feel for you. Kronos' instructions for updating Workforce Central were not the clearest. I actually started my DST planning in January so I could understand all the changes. Basically, for WFC and DCM, you needed to update to the latest service pack, initialize the time clocks so they receive the latest timezone data, and update the JRE on both the WFC server and clients. With three locations to update, testing was very important for us. Kronos needs to be updated, but you could synchronize the clocks' time with the communications PC. More important for WFC users was the Java runtime updates that understand the new timezones. I don't have the iSeries product, so can't say what procedures are needed for DST compliance.

(Though, that's the only type of clock we have.) Apparently, the guy on our staff who maintains the Kronos system did not understand that anything had to be done for daylight savings time until it didn't work. So now we have to update the software to a version that's compatible with the new daylight savings time changes.. Ugh... this is a lot of work just to change the clocks by an hour!!
