TZTAB Modified TIME ZONE Not Correct
I need SERVER B to match Server A. Looks like somone edited /usr/lib/tztab on SERVER B. I know we can repatch the tztab but since it was manual modified it will take some manual intervention. I was wondering if I copied the tztab file from the good server A to server B and eboot server B, could this resolve my issue?
All replies are appreciated.

Re: TZTAB Modified TIME ZONE Not Correct
One wonders if Server-A has the WRONG localtime. In US Central Time prior to 2007, it would now be standard and not daylight time at this writing. Using the 2007+ rules means that it's not until this weekend that we transition to standard time.
I would 'diff' the '/usr/lib/tztab' of both servers in question to evaluate correctness.
I would also verify the UTC time on both servers with:
# date -u
...and make sure that is indeed correct.
Regards!

Re: TZTAB Modified TIME ZONE Not Correct
Yes, just as I thought: Server-A has an old, erroneous '/usr/lib/tztab'. Server-A "thinks" it is now standard time when it really isn't.
Look at the last line of the stanza:
0 1 25-31 10 1975-2038 0 CST6
Now look at how this is interpreted:
http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60127/tztab.4.html
You need to update Server-A. See:
http://www.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/patchDetail.do?patchid=PHCO_39172
_AND_READ_ the SPECIAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

Re: TZTAB Modified TIME ZONE Not Correct
So from what you are saying Server A and Server B are incorrect.

> So from what you are saying Server A and Server B are incorrect.
The 'tztab' on Server-A needs to be updated.
Both servers need to have their true time verified and corrected to UTC. This is why I said, match your:
# date -u
...to a source like:
