Oracle Fix for U.S. Daylight Saving Time Changes in 2007

Hi --
Does any one know that if Oracle 10g Application Server (9.0.4) or Oracle 10g Application Server (10.1.2) as a fix for this issue.
Summary of the Issue: Information about the impact of the US Energy Policy Act of 2005, which changes the effective dates of US Daylight Saving Time (DST) in 2007 for the US. The passage of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 alters the Daylight Saving Time (DST) start and stop dates by four weeks. Extended Daylight Saving Time will begin in March of 2007.

  • App. Servers Patches (Fix) for U.S. Daylight Saving Time Changes in 2007

    Hi --
    I am having an issue with Oracle 10g Application Server (9.2.0.4 and 10.1.2) and BEA Weblogic (8.1.4) upgrading their corresponding JDK's to resolve the Daylight Saving Time Changes. Right now these app servers are using SUN jdk version, whcih prone to the DST issue, less that JDK 1.4.2.11.

  • Daylight Saving Time Changes in 2007 for USA

    Can anyone give me solution how to handle Daylight saving Time changes in 2007 in USA for JDK 1.3.x releases? We are using this due to some vendor dependency. We can�t upgrade to higher versions up to middle of the 2007. I would be thankful if somebody gets back to me.

    I have a similar issue where we cannot upgrade the jdk 1.1 without involving a lot of effort. If we keep the same old jdk, can someone tell me if use of Date and Calendar api will be impacted by the Daylight saving change.....provided the timezone is default and not explicitly set to EST. Also there isnt any timezone related buss logic.

  • Support for US Daylight Saving Time changes in 2007

    The Start and Stop dates for Daylight Savings Time in US will change from 2007.
    From Sun's bug database, it looks like Sun has handled this Daylight Saving Time changes in JDK 1.5.0_06.
    http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6317178
    Does anyone know if they have handled this in earlier JDK releases (1.3.x, 1.4.x)? If not, do they have any plan to handle these changes?

    1.3.1_18 had a timezone change.
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/ReleaseNotes.html
    1.4.2_11 had some timezone changes (but now there is a 1.4.2_12, so use that).
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/ReleaseNotes.html
    Not sure exactly what the timezone changes were, but check the release notes or give those JDKs a try.

  • Daylight Saving Time Changes for 2007

    Hello Friends
    Sun's J2SE 1.4.2_11 has taekn care of the new Daylight Saving Time changes in accordance with The Energy Policy Act of 2005. Does anyone know if bea has incorporated same changes to their Jrockit, if so then starting which version.
    http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/USDST/
    Thanks for the answers in advance.
    Regards
    Rajeev Bhogal

    Hello All
    We currently compile and run our application with Jrockit 1.4.2_04 (build 1.4.2_04-b05), if we change to minor version 11 for 1.4.2 should we recompile the application. I would think that DST related binaries would only be called at run time not compile time, however I am far from being a compiler expert. Can any learned friend shed some light.
    Henrik what do you think.

  • USA Residents:  Early Daylight Saving Time *Changes*.

    Apparently, a few folks are unaware of the changes & patch because for various reasons they do not check and/or use their Software Update Control Panel.

  • Daylight Savings Time Change Mar-2007

    Is this years new date for DayLight Savings Time going to affect my WRT54G v3.1 router?  My firmware is 4.30.5.
    Also, does anyone know why the opening admin page for my router say I have a WRT54GL?

    Versions 1 - 4 and GL's use the same firmware because they all have the Linux operating system.
    The new release firmware for versions 1 to 4 is 4.21.1  If there is no fix for the new DST in 4.30.x it might be in the new release.

  • Converting unix timestamp to date after Daylight Saving Time change

    Hello,
    in one of the products we use the internal scheduler stores dates (and times) in an Unix-like format, that is seconds since 1st of January 1970. We have used this SQL to extract the actual date:
    TO_CHAR(t.next_fire_time/(24*60*60*1000) +to_date('19700101020000','yyyymmddhh24miss'),'yyyymmddhh24miss')
    Everything worked fine until the time has changed this weekend from UTC+2 to UTC+1 (we are located in Eastern Europe). Since then the query above returns one hour later than it should.
    I.e. timestamp *1320067800000* is returned as *20111031153000* even thought correct is (and the actual time the event was scheduled) *31-OCT-11 02.30.16.000000 PM*
    I found queries like this on different forums and no one seems to worry much about the daylight savings. Is this a configuration issue in the DB or is it a bug in our code?
    I tried selecting the SESSIONTIMEZONE and DBTIMEZONE and both were +1.
    Any help appreciated.

    Your problem is hard-coded 2hour offset:
    to_date('19700101<font size=5 color=red>02</font>0000','yyyymmddhh24miss')You need to calculate current offset to adjust it to current DST situation:
    with sample_table as (
                          select date '1970-01-01' + 1320067800000 / 1000 / 3600 / 24 dt_utc from dual
    select  dt_utc,
            dt_utc +
            extract(
                         timezone_hour
                    from
                         from_tz(cast(dt_utc as timestamp),'utc') at time zone 'Europe/Prague'
                   ) / 24 dt_prague,
            extract(
                         timezone_hour
                    from
                         from_tz(cast(dt_utc as timestamp),'utc') at time zone 'Europe/Prague'
                   ) tz_offset
      from  sample_table
    DT_UTC              DT_PRAGUE            TZ_OFFSET

  • Daylight saving time changes - Netweaver Java

    Hi,
    For DST, we are planning to shutdown ABAP systems. What about JAVA systems, shall Hi,
    For DST , we are planning to shutdown ABAP systems. What about JAVA systems, shall we need to shutdown JAVA systems??
    It would be great, if any one can provide any document or OSS notes for JAVA systems.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Srinivas,
    Sorry that I don't know any Note covering all different platforms and releases...
    My experience is that for non-active Java engine on Windows, the Java engine would run fine without shutdown. For some platform(s), it is required to shutdown ABAP stack, so the Java engine will be down for ABAP+JAVA systems.
    If you give the release and the platform details, manby someone has the answer.
    Best regards,
    Victor

  • New Daylight Saving Time Rules

  • Daylight Saving Time Patch

    Hi,
    I'm using instantclient-basic-solaris32-10.2.0.2. Does anyone know if I need to patch this client for the Daylight Saving Time change coming up?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Time zone and DST information are only used in TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE (TSLTZ) and TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE (TSTZ) datatypes, and not for any other datatype. If TSLTZ or TSTZ types are not used there is no requirement to make any updates to the time zone rules.
    For more information, you should read Metalink Doc ID 359145.1

  • CreateODBCDateTime monkeys with Daylight Saving Time!!

    If one uses CreateODBCDateTime to convert a date into the
    proper format for storing in a SQL Server database, and one runs
    this operation on a date between 0200 and 0300 on the day that
    Daylight Saving Time changes, the function will change the time
    forward or backward one hour. IT WILL DO THIS EVEN IF THE DATE YOU
    ARE STORING IS UTC, thus rendering UTC times INVALID because they
    do not have DST. Why does this function monkey with DST at all?

    I have several international web sites on this server, one of
    which has over 100,000 users who have contributed over 70 million
    records, all with UTC timestamps. The problem occurs during the one
    hour period EVERY YEAR when daylight saving time is started. It
    does not do this in the fall when the time reverts. So, yes, the
    problem only occurs during 1 hour out of 8,760 hours, but when you
    start with 70 million records over 5 or 6 years...
    But the danger is for anybody who stores or manipulates a
    date/time OTHER THAN the date/time that is being used internally to
    the server. In other words, if your server is set to Central Time,
    and you have users in Hawaii or Arizona who need to store their own
    date/time, it is likely to apply Central Timezone RULES to that
    date/time, even if Hawaii and Arizona don't use DST.
    Let's say you're scheduling operating rooms in a hospital in
    Honolulu. All the CF routines are going to make sure to shift those
    times forward an hour without warning, have a nice day. In my case,
    it is happening with UTC, but it could be ANY time zone that has
    different rules than the ones on your server.
    Yes, I can probably figure out a different way to process
    times, but this is a massive system with thousands of different
    templates. In fact it affects several pretty massive software
    systems with millions of lines of code, so it's not as if I can
    just change a few SQL queries and be done with it.
    It probably should be a rule for anybody operating a
    ColdFusion server in an international setting, where dates and
    times from different regions might need to be stored in a database,
    to set up the server on UTC time just to avoid this problem.
    Me, I have to
    a. find all the places this will affect in thousands of lines
    of code,
    b. try to decide what impact going to UTC on the server will
    have on things like scheduled tasks, email servers, etc,
    c. then figure out whether there is any way to repair tens of
    thousands of corrupted records

  • BO-XI R2 daylight saving time

    The time in infoview has not changed to accommodate the daylight saving time change.
    Version:  11.5.8.8265
    Tried to install xir2 edst patch (CHF15_DST), when doing so I get a message stating "MHF1 is needed as prerequisite"...when I try to install MHF1, receive message "No supported XIR2 products detected"
    Please advice, thank you.

    Symptom
    The Integration Kit for Baan driver displays incorrect time data in reports. The time is off by an hour between the dates marking the old Daylight Saving Time (DST) and the new DST change.
    Cause
    DST has been changed to occur earlier in the year. The Integration Kit for Baan does not pick the new settings up.
    Resolution
    There are files called ZONEFILES on the BAAN Server. These files must be already updated on the Baan server side.
    The Integration Kit for Baan installs our own version of these files in the following folder:
    \Baan\Native\lib\ZONEINFO
    on the hard drive where the Integration Kit is installed.
    Back up these files on the Crystal Reports/Business Objects XI computer, then put a copy of the ZONEFILES from the Baan Server to the computer where the Integration Kit for Baan is installed.

  • SCEP scheduled scan time problem with daylight-saving time?

    Since the daylight-saving time change from last weekend (1 hour earlier) we see that a large group of SCEP clients start their scheduled scan at 11:00 where we have it set in the policy in SCCM2012 at 12:00.
    Most workstations still begin their scan at 12:00.
    Any idea?
    Regards, Bob

    I’m cleaning up old post, did you figure this out yet, if so what was the solution?
