The agents seemed to have worked fine for everything except these repeat
reminders... we checked before and after on R&Rs and meetings that showed
the DST discrepancy and they were all fine after running the agents...
hopefully Lotus can give a definitive answer on what happened with these
entries (and how to fix).

It looks like if we simply adjust the time on the entries to be correct
during the 'extended' periods it then skews the time to an hour too early
on the dates after the 'extended' DST range.  When scheduling a new daily
reminder over 60 days as a test, it is handled correctly it appears.

We ended up not using the agents -- I created the view that showed what
calendar entries needed attention and told my users to let me know if they
wanted me to run "the agent" against their calendars.  For the handful
that replied, it was faster for them to just open and re-save their
entries.

The DST Calendar view was a lifesaver, however, in giving us an easy way
to have our users check their own DST settings.  We ended up manually
updating well over half of our workstations, so it was very helpful to be
able to tell someone to open their "DST Calendar" and create a reminder
and tell me what icon came back -- it also helped flag the ones where the
updates had been successfully applied, but Windows decided to go on a
European vacation (Sarajevo appears to have been very popular with our
machines.  None opted for Brisbane, as mentioned in a Technote I saw) or
to Latin America.

I'm thrilled to report that the iSeries and its resident Domino server
switched without a restart, although the logs look a little funky -- it's
like some processes changed times at different rates.  And one jumped to
4AM for about 15 seconds before changing to match the rest.

All in all, I hope this is done -- last week was the longest week I've had
in a long time.  Although I see our phone system is still an hour off --
not mine to worry about, I guess.

Hope you all have a good week ahead of you.

Patrick

Re: dst stuff on Domino







Walt,

      Are you aware of any issues with the way repeating
meetings/reminders
were handled with the fix agents for C&S?  We performed all the suggested
actions and ran the R&R and C&S agents and could see the agents fix the
times on the resource reservations and meeting times that we checked
before
and after. (We are at 6.5.4FP1).

What i'm seeing now is that users with repeating reminders in their
calendars are showing strange behavior.  The reminder times for the
extended periods (today through the beginning of April) had their times
shifted forward one hour during the extended period.  Here's an example:

Date  Reminder Time
3/8   2:00pm
3/9   2:00pm
3/12  3:00pm
thru
3/30  3:00pm
4/2   2:00pm
4/3   2:00pm

My guess is that somehow the agent did not process these correctly and it
looks like the actually start time was skewed an hour forward during the
extended periods.  The same behavior is seen for the extended period in
the
fall it looks like.  I'm seeing it on the 3 users with repeat reminders
that i've checked so far...

I've got a PMR opened up, but that queue is in callback mode.

dst stuff on Domino






I have to add this line to all Domino Servers:
DSTLaw=3, 2, 1, 11, 1, 1

I did a test email from yahoo to me before, and after, adding it to:
GDISYS01, GDISYS02, INTERNOTES, INTERNOTES02 and it made the difference.
Testing was done via an external yahoo account.  Email sent before had the

wrong time.  Email sent after had the right time.
My fault.  IBM had this documented at
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=463&uid=swg21247972#Preparing%20Notes%20and%20Domino




This is the same site that had that client recommendation that I just told

you about.

I may be bouncing some additional servers...
