Sv: Setting the date ahead for Y2K testing

Did this once, years ago, by accident on a s/38 that always asked for
(confirmation of) date at IMPL (Yes - that was the term at that was used at
that time). 

I'm looking for the list. Until then only two things I remember:

Our (homemade) scheduler didn't like it - I had to reset a lot of dates.
Minor pecularities when displaying historylog from a specific time.

Tha last was no real problem. The first one indicates, that you should take
down all scheduling functions (now more and more built-in in OS/400) and don't
do IPL/QSTRUP until the date is reset.

Emne: Setting the date ahead for Y2K testing
Dato: 27. maj 1998 18:39

The question of what to look out for when setting the date ahead on an
AS/400 for Y2K testing has come up several times.  

Has anyone kept track of the issues that come up and compiled them
into one list, posting them on the web somewhere?  Periodically I have
customers who call up and tell me they are planning to do this with 
their system.  I'd like to be able to refer them to a single source with
things to look out for.

TIA,

Ilena Ayala
