Refer following links for details.

In HP-UX 11.0 and 11.11, the rules for daylight saving are defined in /usr/lib/tztab, so I believe the following definitions are needed for New Zealand.
# New Zealand Standard Time, New Zealand Daylight Time
#
NZST-12NZDT
0 3 25-31 10 1985-1988 0 NZDT-13
0 3 8 10 1989 0-6 NZDT-13
0 3 1-7 10 1990-2006 0 NZDT-13
0 3 24-30 9 2007-2038 0 NZDT-13
0 2 1-7 3 1985-1989 0 NZST-12
0 2 15-21 3 1990-2007 0 NZST-12
0 2 1-7 4 2008-2038 0 NZST-12
---
My questions:
1. Has anyone in New Zealand made these modifications and verified them by rolling the clock forward to 30 September, 2007 (and April 2008)?
2. Based on experience with Daylight Saving changes in other parts of the world, are there any other things on HP-UX systems that need changing - e.g. Timezone definitions in Java, Oracle and other products?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Yes, these needed changing for Y2K7.
I don't see any notes about your change on HP's official DST page:
http://www.hp.com/go/dst/
If/when you talk to HP, tell them it should have info there.

Re: New Zealand Daylight Saving Time changes for September 2007
Regarding:
http://www.hp.com/go/dst/
That one really only seems to be for North America, as Australia has also changed and there is no mention of Australia or New Zealand on that page.

Re: New Zealand Daylight Saving Time changes for September 2007
Hmm, I thought it was for all DST related issues. You could suggest HP add your New Zealand issue there.
At least it points off to Java, etc.

You don't need to move your clock if you use Clay's perl script in this thread:

Re: New Zealand Daylight Saving Time changes for September 2007
- oracle ( applicable only in certain scenarios)
- aCC runtime libs ( I know that the rogue wave libs do custom handling of timezones, they need to be updated)

Re: New Zealand Daylight Saving Time changes for September 2007
No, they don't support any country outside of the US and a few European countries.
So don't use RWZone. Use libc's ctime(3).
