Will daylight savings changes break OD if not done?

I've got a client a few hundered miles away with a 10.3.9 open directory server. I'm not sure I can get over there to apply the DST patches before the time comes. Can this break OD authentication in some fashion if not done? Since the actual authentication is done internally against itself and the clients just use LDAP I would guess that it'd be OK? Logfiles will obviously be an hour old, but I can deal for the time being..
Thanks!

Is this server an OD master for other servers? If not, probably nothing will happen. If it IS a master for other servers, you'll want to apply the patch before any changes are made to the OD database (i.e. password changes, etc.).

  • 2007 US Daylight Savings change time zone support in JDK 1.3

    Sun has supported the 2007 US Daylight Savings change in recent versions of its JDKs 1.4 and 1.5. It has made partial Daylight Savings changes to JDK 1.3, but it's not a complete implementation like in 1.4 and 1.5, because there is no support for past/future Daylight Savings rules, only a single current set of Daylight Savings rules per time zone.
    Our Java application (running in the America/New_York time zone) seems to be doomed, because the likelihood of upgrading to JDK 1.4/1.5 seems slim (we have to upgrade a third-party product first and success is seeming more and more remote), and Sun claims to be unable to fully implement the Daylight Savings change in JDK 1.3.
    If any Sun Java staff can explain the reasons for being unable to implement the change in 1.3 (or at least some kind of workaround that an individual JVM user could enable), please fill me in. Any pointers on cleanly setting up a custom workaround would be valuable too.
    If there are other Java users in the same situation, please fill me in on your own plans if you can. Is anybody trying to pressure Sun or other vendors for a solution? Is anybody writing their own custom workaround?
    More details....
    What we really need is for the default TimeZone in JDK 1.3 (America/New_York on our machines) to work regardless of whether the date/time being checked is pre-2007 or post-2007. In particular, getOffset and inDaylightTime should work for both 2006 dates and 2007 dates. The JDK should return the correct values for 2006 dates, as well as the correct values for the 2007 US DST extension dates (03/12/2007-04/02/2007 and 10/29/2007-11/05/2007). This would enable parsing and formatting using SimpleDateFormat to work correctly as well. The TimeZone and SimpleDateFormat APIs are used throughout our application.
    JDK 1.3.1_19 has an interesting workaround that depends on the current system time. Prior to Jan 1 2007, it will handle 2006 dates correctly but 2007 dates wrong. After Jan 1 2007, it will handle 2007 dates correctly but 2006 dates wrong. Either way, it is always wrong for some dates.
    JDK 1.4.2_13 and 1.5.0_09 both handle 2006 and 2007 dates correctly.
    If JDK 1.3 will never work for 2006 and 2007 dates, then I am contemplating two workarounds:
    1. Set the default TimeZone to a custom implementation as soon after JVM startup as possible.
    2. Avoid the default TimeZone entirely, changing our application code to rely on explicit custom TimeZones.

    Hi KBarney
    I think u have the correct data file. to make sure see the "zi" dir is backed up in ur java lib folder or not.
    if u have suspicion than run the tzupdater tool again.
    this tool must be run for each jre/java version on your machine separately.
    I tried this on 1.4.2.13 and not on 1.5.0.10. here is the result:

  • Daylight Savings Changes 2007

    Daylight Savings time will be altered in 2007 as seen in http://geography.about.com/cs/daylightsavings/a/dst.htm
    Is Coherence certified to handle these changes? We have already found issues in the OS and JDK that need to be patched.

    Coherence will correctly handle daylight savings changes once the JDK has been patched.
    Without the JDK patch, only the Coherence logging function will be incorrect, in that the logged messages will reflect the incorrect (unpatched) "timezone".
    Coherence has very careful handling of "wall clock time" functionality to avoid being impacted by network time daemons, system clock irregularities, time zone shifts, etc.

  • Alarm turned off after daylight savings change?

    Hi. I woke up late this morning. I know I set my alarm last night. Last night was the change to daylight savings (forward one hour). Ok, I'm human, so of course being asleep, I can't be 100% sure I didn't turn it off without waking... we all have done that right? :P But I'm fairly certain I didn't, and am wondering if this may be a software glitch. I don't want to wait 6 months to find out when it changes back.
    iPhone 4 fully updated. Alarm set to 5:30am

    It seems that because of the structure and communication of Apple corporation, the Apple telephone support staff may not necessarily know any more than a thoughtful user, and almost certainly will know less about this particular alarm issue than a user who peruses these forums. For example, they didn't know that turning off Time Zone Support is another way to temporarily solve the problem (as an alternative to changing Set Automatically to OFF) - something I learnt from an Apple discussion.
    This problem was raised in these discussions in June of this year for users in Lithuania and in Sri Lanka. It was New Zealand's turn in late September, and Australia's turn on Sunday. My guess is that Apple will scramble to fix the issue before it hits USA users in November, but why rush until then, when it's only users from other parts of the world (non-Americans) being affected?

  • Linked Files in InDesign Now Modified after Daylight Savings Change

    I looked for a discussion on this and couldn’t find one so if there is one already open please direct me to it and my apologies.
    I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem after the Daylight Savings Time Change on November 6th.
    Starting on Monday, November 7th we have noticed that all of our InDesign files that had artwork files linked to the document are now coming up as being modified in the Links pallet even though that artwork has not been modified. I haven’t recalled having this issue since we were using Quark 4 and InDesign CS.
    All files are stored on Windows servers running ExtremeZIP, all InDesign files are being opened on Mac Intel and Mac PowerPc models running either OSX 10.4 or OSX 10.6. All servers and Macs are sinc’d to pull the date and time from the same server and we verified that they are matching to the second.
    We get the same results if the files are opened in InDesign CS4, CS5 or CS5.5.
    Is anyone else seeing this issue and if so have you been able to rectify it without updating all the links and saving the files.
    I’ve been searching everywhere and I have found tech notes from Adobe that states that this issue was fixed in CS4.0.6 but we are running this version and still suffering from the problem.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    This sounds like an ExtremeZIP bug. Like perhaps your server is not acconting for daylight saving properly in its on-the-wire protocol. I seem to recall there are a number of gotchas about this involving Windows. I would check with ExtremeZIP. Did the file dates/times change as shown by Get Info in the finder? I suppose it would be difficult to tell at this point...

  • Issue with All Day events - post Australian Daylight Savings change.

    Hi all,
    I have had a weird problem occur since daylight savings has changed for Australia.
    I sync my Microsoft Outlook 2003 on my PC and calender on my iPhone. This works great and I have never had a problem until now. Since Sunday, 'all day' events created on Outlook are going into the previous day on the iPhone, and any 'all day' events created on the iPhone are spread across two days on Outlook.
    All the timezones and clocks are correct on both devices and any specifc time appointments are correct on both devices. This only applies to All Day Events.
    The other strange thing is that it only occurs for days between now and the last weekend in October. Interestingly enough this was the old date of daylight savings changeover before it was brought forward in 2007.
    I think what is happening is that the iPhone's timezone doesn't know that it is daylights savings yet, even though the cell network is updating the clocks and making it appear correct.
    This is also happening to my colleague.
    Not sure how to fix this. Surely this is happening to others.
    Any help would be great...
    Trent

    i noticed with a client and outlook, when syncing with m.me i had a similar problem where i made an all day event and vs 1 day it was two.. the problem was tracked down to how outlook makes the event; it made a '24 hr event' not an 'untimed' event.
    I unchecked the 'all day even't and it showed the event going from midnight to midnight (which for no good reason it called that the next day which it is not).. I shortened up the duration to a few hours mid-day and then checked the 'all day' check and it made it one day again.
    post if it works.

  • How can I change the settings so notes don't sync to my email?

    I don't like how notes always syncs to my email, because it's pretty much send my diary out, even it there's not much stuff there. How do I change the settings so they don't sync?
    Thanks. It might seem like an obvious question, but I can't find the preferences in settings.

    Go to Preferences in Mac Mail on your computer. Open Accounts. Open Gmail Account. Select Mailbox behaviors and uncheck "Show notes in inbox". I just figured it out a couple minutes ago, but so far notes will update on the computer, iphone and ipad and nothing has been erased.

  • Citadel time wrong after daylight savings change

    I have just noticed that all of my previous alarms in Citadel are now
    off by 1 hour after the fall time change. For example, an alarm that
    occured at 4:00 am yesterday (and was in the Citadel database as 4:00
    am yesterday), is now shown as 3:00 am after the time change.
    Any work arond for this? I am running lookout 6.0
    Also, is there a way to change the order of the date field in Citadel?
    It displays as month first in the date colum. I would like YYYYMMDD
    HHMMSS so when I export to Excel it will sort corectly.
    Thanks in advance.

    alan,
    What Bob said is correct.  You can change the way Excel formats
    the date to however you want by right-clicking on the cells and
    selecting Format Cells..., then clicking on either Date, Time,
    or Custom, and changing the format that way, however this will have no
    bearing on how Excel sorts the columns.  The values are stored in
    Universal Time format.

  • Daylight savings change also changed my calendar e...

    I am running firmware 40(.?) in my nokia 5800 and, on sunday when the clock went forward 1 hour, it changed all my calendar entries to add an hour to the start time.
    Is this a known bug?

    See the long discussion of this problem (and the fact that it has not been solved) here:

    Hi Folks.
    I've written some terminal instructions for those wishing to change their time-zone via the command line.
    This is especially useful, if you're looking after multiple users / workstations or servers.
    And you can change the time zone back later, via a similar command.
    For full details, see my post at:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=750071
    (Support -> Discussions -> Tiger Forums -> Installation & Setup -> Perth Western Australia WA Daylight Savings Time Zone change via Terminal)
    There are just a couple of commands to use, specifically:
    sudo rm /etc/localtime
    sudo ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Japan /etc/localtime
    ls -la /etc/localtime
    and this command to make the change visible:
    open /System/Library/PreferencePanes/DateAndTime.prefPane/
    And to change the timezone back:
    sudo rm /etc/localtime
    sudo ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Perth /etc/localtime
    ls -la /etc/localtime
    and then:
    open /System/Library/PreferencePanes/DateAndTime.prefPane/
    (You can omit 'sudo' if you're using Remote Desktop).
    Of course, there are still the issues of iCal appointments shuffling. But that seems to be the only issue.
    To avoid the issues with iCal, open up iCal, open up your iCal Preferences, and select the "Advanced" tab, and enable time-zone support.
    After the time-zone change, when you or your users next open iCal, you will be asked "Your computer's time zone changed" ... "Do you want to change the time zone in iCal's main calendar view to 'Japan'?"
    When this message comes up, select "Cancel" (e.g. NO). And your iCal appointments will NOT be time-shifted.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    Derek

  • OT: USA Daylight Savings Reminder

    Hey gang, Daylight savings in the USA is happening this weekend which is earlier then usual. Make sure you launch software update, download, and install the daylight savings patch if you haven't done so already.

    Many thanks for the reminder.
    But do a software update because of DST? DANGER WILL ROBINSON! I suggest changing the clock MANUALLY and not risk whatever damage the lovely software update can potentially create (as they are known to do)... This goes along with my rule of "never update unless there's a known benefit". And if I can set my clock manually, then IMO there's no known benefit to updating. Unless there's something I'm missing here...
