Check the setting for Daylight saving times

How can I verify all my 11.23 servers are all set for the DST? I don't see zdump? Please assist...

In order to be environmentally friendly and save some garbage bits ( just kidding ).

Search this forum for DST.. There be hundreds of hits. Specifically a couple that reference a perl script for testing.

Otherwise... set your system time to November (whatever it is ) 01:59 and see what happens.

An easier way, look at the US section of /usr/lib/tztab. Should include entries in each like this.
0 1 1-7 11 2007-2038 0 CST6

Or
swlist -l product|grep -i tztab

should have later than PHCO_34669

Hi:

You can search this forum for a little Perl script written by Clay called 'dst.pl'. One thread containing it is:

Follow the notes therein!
