Service message: Daylight saving time ends

Hi

Just in case that you have forgot about DST - Daylight saving time: Your AS/400 
should probably have changed it's system values for QTIME and QUTCOFFSET the 
upcoming weekend. 

A simple way to do this is (today) to execute the following commands

SBMJOB CMD(CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QHOUR) VALUE('01')) 
  JOB(CHGSYSVAL1) JOBQ(QCTL)
  SCDDATE(*SUN) SCDTIME(020000) 

and

SBMJOB CMD(CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QUTCOFFSET) VALUE('-0500')) 
  JOB(CHGSYSVAL2) JOBQ(QCTL)
  SCDDATE(*SUN) SCDTIME(020000) 

Of cause the values in theese commands might differ from above depending on 
your location and environment. More details about YOUR values on 
http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst2003b.html (you should probably look in 
"Local time transitions" column)
