Solaris 10 x86 daylight savings time patch failes

Hello! I'm having trouble getting my solaris box to recognize the new timezone change. I've installed patches 122033-04 and 121208-03 as you can see here:
$ showrev -p | fgrep 122033
Patch: 122033-04 Obsoletes: Requires: Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWcsu
$ showrev -p | fgrep 121208
Patch: 121208-02 Obsoletes: 118345-13, 118849-01, 120018-02 Requires: 118844-22 Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWcsu, SUNWcsr, SUNWcsl, SUNWtoo, SUNWcslr, SUNWhea, SUNWbtool
Patch: 121208-03 Obsoletes: 118345-13, 118849-01, 120018-02, 118565-03 Requires: 118844-14, 118844-22 Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWcsu, SUNWcsr, SUNWcsl, SUNWtoo, SUNWcslr, SUNWhea, SUNWbtool
$ uname -a
SunOS icarus 5.10 Generic_118844-26 i86pc i386 i86pAfter the reboot, the time from the date command jumped forward one hour, but the timezone still shows "CDT", not "CST" for central time.
This problem also seems to affect time calculations in my java version "1.5.0_06" environment.
Does anyone have an idea what could be happening? Thanks for any help.

Hi Celerius,
I thought that Central Daylight Time would be the correct timezone since DST began last Sunday? CST is the winter timezone.
What might be impacting your java time calculations is a problem which we noticed with java 1.5.0_06, where there is an issue with time zones being incorrectly mapped. We found that the use of 1.5.0_04 was more stable. Maybe you can try that on your test platform to see if it helps.
Cheers.

DST-2007 Daylight Savings Time Patches for MAC OS

I have found Daylight Savings Time patches for other platforms.
Is there a patch for Daylight Saving Time for MAC OS?
Thanks.

They are the settings I have always used and my computers have always reverted to and from Daylight savings (except of course I'm in Queensland, Then I have to reset my location and remember to set it back.
Other than that if may come down to trashing your pref file for date and time.
Good Luck

Daylight savings time patch

how do I make sure all of my solaris 8-9-10 systems are ready for march time change?

run 'zdump -v <yourtimezone> | grep 2007'
US timezones that follow daylight saving time will change in March. The old zones will change in April. You will see the date of the change in the above output.

Daylight Savings Time patch for Java

This DST patch for java has me totally confused. I downloaded and installed tzupdater2006p, which according to the README it was suppose to cover 1.3.1_18 through 1.4 . All went well until I found one the servers, a Solaris 8 one, running 1.3.1_01. I've been searching for a patch for that but can't seem to find one. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

No that looks like the earliest it goes to according to the what it lists. I just did this the other day in support of some vendors application software that we use. If you have a paying account with Sun, perhaps you can open a contact with them.
But here's a caveat ... after I had applied that patch to my Java, the vendor told me that they won't support it - that is, they did not test using it, and so recommended upgrading to 1.4.2_12. You might want to explore that possibility on your side too.

Checking daylight savigns time patch

I have to make a 10.1.0.3 oracle home to migrate a database that i am not allowed to upgrade. If I remember correctly from when we all had to apply the daylight savings time patch, there is a query to check to see if this is applied correctly. I can't find it on the web.
can someone post it?

"opatch lsinventory" should tell you what patches are applied to the home.

Solaris 10 u8 system did not update daylight savings time

I am running Solaris 10 u8 x86, and my system did not update for the daylight savings time change on Nov. 1, 2009. I am in the US/Mountain time zone. What should I do?
Patch 141517-04 is installed, I assume it came with u8.
Does this have something to with JAVA Time Zone updater? I saw this:
http://java.sun.com/javase/timezones/tzdata_versions.html
Shouldn't u8 take care of all this automatically? Do I have to somehow get TZUT 1.3.20? By contacting support? What?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, I'm running 64-bit Solaris as a VirtualBox (3.0.10) guest VM on a 32-bit WinXP host.

Daylight savings time and solaris 10

Does anyone know if Solaris 10 users have to install a patch for the Daylight Savings Time issue?
Thank you

I have used RealVNC Free program (http://www.realvnc.com)in all my systems with no problem, if interested hereis a quick way to install it.:
File to use: �vnc-4_1_2-sparc_solaris.tar.gz�
#gunzip vnc-4_1_2-sparc_solaris.tar.gz
#tar �xvf vnc-4_1_2-sparc_solaris.tar
#cd vnc-4_1_2-sparc_solaris
b)
Install it by running:
# ./vncinstall /usr/bin /usr/share/man
Note: this will also install man pages into �/usr/share/man/man1�
If you want to use the Java VNC viewer (Open browser and type pc_name:display#):
Copy the files from the java directory to some suitable installation directory
such as /usr/local/vnc/classes (vncserver will read this path!- don�t change it):
# mkdir -p /usr/local/vnc/classes
# cp java/* /usr/local/vnc/classes
c)
Add to the .profile file (under the user):
vncserver -depth 24 -geometry 1024x768
d)
under the user:
Create a /.vnc directory first, we will create the xstartup file inside:
file /.vnc/xstartup:
#!/bin/sh
xsetroot -solid grey
gnome-session <note: if you want to use gnome as the defualt >
#/usr/dt/bin/dtsession <note: if you want to use CDE as the default >
make the 'xstartup' file executable:
# chmod 744 xstartup
*** Sample used for the user: (use the same file for the other users) �it will be created
the first time using it, just change it/add to the following sample:
First time to login will ask to create a password or
Run /export/home/�name�/.vnc/passwd (to add password to login)
If Needed, change ownership on the following 3 if you create them using root user:
/.vnc folder
/.vnc/xstartup
/.vnc/passwd

10.3.9 Daylight Savings Time Problem (DST Patch applied), it was working

We have about 30 Macs running 10.3.9, all of which were patched last year with the DST patch (2007). They are all configured to set the date and time automatically using time.apple.com. The user account used by the people using them is a non-administrator account.
Since Daylight Savings Time changed in March 9, 2008, they correctly changed their time until late last week (end of March), when several of them went back to the old time. If I open the Date & Time System Preference Pane and authenticate, the clock changes to the correct time, without any further input from me other than authenticating as the admin. Once changed, some but not all go back to the incorrect time about a day later.
Any ideas? I am trying to see if there is a simpler solution that resetting PRAM, throwing away cache files, etc.
Other machines running newer versions of the OS don't have the issue.
Thanks in advance for any input and/or advice.

Energy Act of 2005 and Daylight Savings Time

We currently use Sun Studio compilers. We use the embedded tools.h RogueWave libraries. The Energy Act of 2005 changes the dates for Daylight Savings Time starting in 2007. Will there be any patches from Sun to handle this? We currently use RWZoneSimple which is extensible, but we were hoping for an update from Sun.
Thanks in advance. Sorry if this has been covered, I just couldn't find anything.
Further Reading:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_Policy_Act_of_2005

The RW Tools.h++ library that comes with Sun Studio has been updated with the new DST rules. I don't think the patches have been released yet.
If you have a service contract with Sun, you can get a pre-release version of the patch via your support channel.
Otherwise, check the Sun Studio patch page from time to time
http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/patches/index.jsp
Look for a C++ compiler patch that includes a fix for bug 6456479.
RW Tools.h++ does its own DST calculations. Other libraries rely on the Solaris functions in libc. Patches for Solaris are available now as follows:
S10 - 118833-24(sparc), 118855-19(x86)
(The fix is included in S10u2.)
S 9 - 112874-34(sparc), 114432-24(x86)
S 8 - 108993-62(sparc), 108994-62(x86)

Daylight Savings Time 2007 - firmware upgrade ?

In 2007 the start and end dates are going to be different for Daylight Savings Time. As a result, servers are going to need to be patched. Here is a related link I came across:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-26-102617-1
My question is, how do I know whether or not my firmware (PROM) needs to be updated too ? I have searched and have not found a lot of information on the topic of the firmware. Does anyone have any good links or pertinent information on whether the firmware would need to be updated or not ? I have several Netra T1's, Sunfire V480's, and my Sunblade 100 workstation that I am concerned about. Here is the OBP level from one of my V480's that is on Solaris 8: OBP 4.6.8 2002/09/04
and here is the OBP from a V480 on Solaris 9: OBP 4.10.14 2003/11/19.
Thanks for any information.

The platforms mentioned in the Sun Alert 102617 that you linked above,
are all Sun Fire Midrange Server systems.
Their "firmware" is a part of a completely different sort of of architecture.
Their system controllers are a tiny computer, with its own OS, inside the Sun Fire system.
That Real Time Operating System (RTOS) that runs on the SC's has its own
time-of-day function that is independant of whatever Solaris gets installed
to whichever domain or domains you configure to the computer.
Thus the need for the Sun Alert, separate from any TOD discussion for Solaris..

Multiple instances spawned after daylight savings time change

This is a known issue and there is an SAP Knowledge Base Article created on this issue:
1448881 - Multiple instances spawned after daylight savings time change
Below is the information from the SAP Knowledge Base Article:
Symptom
Scheduled reports that are supposed to run once a day, run multiple times.
Duplicate instances are being created.
Environment
BusinessObjects Enterprise XIR2 SP5
BusinessObjects Enterprise XIR2 SP5 + FP5.x
Reproducing the Issue
A report is scheduled to be run on a daily basis - this is a Recurring schedule.
Normally the report runs once a day, at a particular time.
After Daylight Savings Time change, the report runs at the specified time, but immediately after the successful instance, another instance is spawned.
Many more instances spawn after each instance completes.
Cause
This is a known issue: ADAPT01318487. This issue is because of DST and how our code handles this change.
Resolution
There is currently no known fix for this issue. There is however a script that can quickly resolve the problem.
The issue it seems is related to Daily recurring schedules.
What this script will do:
it will run a query to display all your DAILY Recurring jobs
you will have the option to choose your jobs and reschedule them by 1 hour
you will then highlight the same job and change them back by 1 hour
by modifying the schedule times, you are modifying the schedule itself and this will keep the issue of duplicate instances from occurring.
Exact Steps to Complete:
Stop the Job Servers.
Double click on the .hta file.
Change the System Name to that of your CMS name.
Add the Administrator's password.
Click Logon.
Click List All Recurring Instances.
Select All.
Make note of what it says in: Schedule Selected Recurring Instances: Should be 1 hr earlier.
Click Reschedule Selected Recurring Instances.
Choose All instances again and change Schedule Selected Recurring Instances to 1 hour Later.
Click Reschedule Selected Recurring Instances.
Now start your Job Servers.
The issue should not occur again.
The Script is attached here, but please review the SAP Knowledge Base article 1448881 as well

Hi Nicola,
- The multiple spawned instances issue ONLY affects XI3 SP3+ only. For XI3 SP1 and SP2 all Fix Pack levels this is not an issue as it was introduced as a problem in SP3.
- 1568239 notes the Java version and can apply to all O/S environments and is updated to reflect that.
If you are located in Europe you can also apply the patches in advance of the DST change to avoid the problem. If you are in Americas at this point utilizing the clean up scripts for this year is the approach needed to clean up the spawned instances and reschedule the existing schedules.
Thanks,
Chris

2007 Daylight savings time - Oracle 9.2

Hi All,
My Oracle database runs on Windows 2000 Advanced Server. I have followed Microsoft instructions to update the Daylight Savings Time to new settings. Given this, will I need to apply Oracle patches ?
Thanks for your help,

2007 Daylight Savings Time Changes

What, if any, effects will the 2007 changes to US daylight savings time have on the operation of the LabVIEW 7 Express development environment and deployed applications created with it?

I believe the answer depends on the OS the application runs under.
If MS has there act together and the machine in question has recieved updates, there should be no issue.
If you are running Unix (or a variation o such), a patch must be applied (at least that was the story my wife gave for working all night Saturday night).
I can not answer this Q for Mac or LV-RT running under Pharlap.

E-Load/e-ME and Daylight Savings Time Change

If you are using e-TEST suite versions 8.10 or older, please see the following knowledge base article on updating your JRE for e-Load and e-Manager Enterprise.
http://qazone.empirix.com/entry.jspa?externalID=201&categoryID=15
(you must be logged into QAZone to view this link)
It is recommended that e-Load and e-Manager Enterprise customers update the JRE on their e-Load and e-ME server machines using the SUN JRE patch referenced in the article.
e-TEST suite version 8.20 which is releasing this week does not require any update.

My problem is that now CFMX 6.1 thinks that it is 8 hours
later in the day
than it really is (it is stuck on GMT now) and I am unable to
get CFMX to
acknowledge the operating systems clock. :-(

The technote for this issue:

has
another
link to a technote which addresses null pointer exceptions
after upgrading
the
JVM on CFMX 6.1 systems:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=kb400232
The hotfix
described in that technote gives a fix for CFLDAP and
CFSERVLET tags after
the
new JVM is installed.
The important thing to note is that Adobe feels that
daylight savings time
will indeed present a problem for ColdFusion applications.
Unfortunately,
the
problems are not explained in any detail. I can guess that
functions like
DateDiff( ) may calculate incorrect values when spanning the
changed weeks
of
daylight savings time. As others have suggested; however,
simply retrieving
the system time, i.e. Now( ) function may not be affected as
long as the
operating system clock is set correctly.
Hope that helps.

CF MX and Daylight Savings Time

Hi. We have ColdFusion MX Version 6,1,0,83762 installed on
our Windows 2003 server. Will we have any issues with the product
and the Daylight Savings Time coming up on March 11? Is there a
required patch for this change? Thank you.
