DST can't work on Nov.4 2007 on HPUX

raohaiyan — Wed, 03 Jan 2007 22:07:59 GMT

OS:11.11i v1,JRE version:1.4.2_11, and patch PHCO_34668 have installed, but DST only can work on Mar.11 2007, can't work on Nov.4 2007.so I download tzupdate1.0.tar, kill all java procedure, and run "java -jar tzupdate.jar -u -f -v" successfully, but DST can't work on Nov.4 yet. do you have any suggestion? thanks in advance!

DST is Daylight Saving Time

Are you saying that DST doesn't end on Nov 4?

This seems to be correctly done in PHCO_34668 for libc.

yes, as normal, the time should be back to 01:00 after 01:59:59 Nov.11 2007, but now the time go to 2:00 directly, I think PHCO_34468 has installed according my Patch info,below is my Patch info:
hqvwhp20(root)/> swlist -l patch PHCO_34668

# Initializing...

# Contacting target "hqvwhp20"...

#

# Target: hqvwhp20:/

#

# PHCO_34668 1.0 tztab(4) cumulative patch

# PHCO_34668.UX-CORE 1.0 OS-Core.UX-CORE applied

by the way, if I change my time to 01:59:59 Mar.11 2007, the time can go to 03:00 directly.

Thanks

Shalom,

I'd suggest that bringing the system current on patching is a good idea. Also there might be a fix on this in a later version of java.

DST ends on Nov 4, 2007, not 11th. Was that a typo?

Are you changing the machine's time to test it above? Or are you just converting a time?
Are you using date(1) or Java to test it?

yes, that's a typo. DST ends on Nov 4,2007, I used date to test it, I got a new info, if we change the time to 00:58am on Nov 4,2007, the clock proceed to 01:59, then will fall back to 01:00, it's said it's same as solaris, but AIX is normal, I will try, thanks all!

I did a similar test on HP-UX 11 after installing PHCO_34673. When I set it a few minutes before 1:50am on Nov 4th the TZ already said EST. I created a script that ran every minute to check the date. I think I started it at around 1am. When 1:59am came the date went back to 1am so I saw this anomoly too on 11. Could not test on 11i
