Re: daylight saving time hpux 9.x

Good morning Jim,

We still have many 9.03 systems here. Yes, the time zone change is automatic depending on the time zone specified in /etc/src.sh. I've never heard of disabling it.

So, a couple of questions:
Why would you want to do so?
Are your 9.x boxes running ntp? This will time sync the machines also.

Have a great HP day!
Larry :-)

Hi

As said the system will handle the clock change as per /usr/lib/tztab.

The thing to ensure is that cronned jobs do not get skipped or run twice during tz changes.

Jim,

Have you successfully disable the TimeZone? If yes, how do you do this?
Nowadays I'm needing to disable it...

Thanks,
