RE: Changing the system clock this weekend... -- MIDRANGE-L


We are a Mimix shop and have never seen an issue with the time going
forward or backward year to year.  The only issue we've run into is having
to restart our Dominio servers because they get horribly slow when the time
changes underneath them.  This is fixed in a newer Domino release/fixpack
that we haven't made it to yet.

Rob ... I agree that IBM has improved how the OS handles time changes over
the years... They use to do nothing, now they allow the system to adjust
the system clock automatically twice a year.

However, there is still a big problem with how it is handled when the time
change moves backward in time. IBM has not given us a process that
addresses issues involving "time sensitive applications" like MQSeries and
some system journaling processes. Once they combine "Time Adjustment" and
automatic time zone change, then we will have a truly integrated and
automated process for adjusting time on the iSeries...

No Jeff, while there may (or may not) be issues with MQ series, etc, I
simply think that many of these people are just not getting the fact that
there HAS been updates to the OS to handle the time change.

I sure hope they aren't expecting IBM to ptf it back to V2R3.

I don't understand.  I didn't do squat last spring end the i5 just handled
it because of the time zone I set in V5R4.

Other than MQ, are a number of you on older releases causing an issue?

I'm with you Jim (chgsysval qhour) AND when is IBM going to FIX this ?

We have a Linux email server and it adjusts.

All our PC's adjust.

My cell phone adjusts.

WHY can't the iSeries ?

The Time Adjustment seems a good solution for my sites. Don't
have any need to synch with other systems, and it's not an
option to bring the machine down (it's taking and processing orders).
However - I'm not planning to sign on at 1:59am to point &
click a navigator

function.
Why can't Rochester figure it out their job scheduler works
great to run stuff overnight.
We need a  #%*#  command to call.
So I will do what I've done every year - chgsysval qhour.
