Al, This is pure nit-picking on my part as well as comments from someone who has no absolute knowledge of what actually happens during DST time rather than a serious attack on your statements, so bear with me.

I find it hard to accept that the system values do not exist during DST at IPL. I can accept the the OS/400 interfaces to the values are not available, but the values themselves must surely "exist". Otherwise, the implication is that they're created from nothing during IPL. Surely IBM knows how to locate and access the values. I mean, they wrote the parts of OS/400 that make them available. How can it be possible that it _can't_ be done during DST?
