Re: How did DST go for you.

Hi:

On our AS/400 (V5R2) the scheduled change via two CL programs didn't work 
because the code I borrowed didn't have the system values in the right 
format. I checked from home Sunday and fixed it interactively. Everything 
since has been cheerfully ignorant of the change (i.e., it's all working).

On the Windows side of things, nightmarish. NOT ONE server or PC correctly 
updated to Central Daylight Time, in spite of us having tolerated days of 
productivity-crushing update reboots. This includes W2K Pro, WinXP, and 
Win2003 Server machines. The access security system was still old time, as 
were the Notes applications servers ... the list goes on. The main network 
server was also still on Central Standard. When I reset its clock manually 
it seemed OK, but about an hour later it added yet ANOTHER hour, putting 
us either on Eastern Daylight or Atlantic Standard (although the time zone 
still said Central US). The network admin is still fighting with that, and 
some other bizarre fallout such as the backup server skipping all but one 
of the network weekend full backup jobs (Symantec Backup Exec, but not 
idea yet if the software or the O/S was at fault).

Ironically, when I got here this morning it appeared that our phone system 
digital switch was also a victim of Y2Klock. But no, that was just a power 
supply. Once the tech got out of bed and drove here, the hardware 
replacement took 20 seconds.
