I am forwarding all responses received to the TA as suggestions including the fix for SPR 17909 will keep ECRT informed if that resolves the issue

Hi, Even though it doesn't the exact same issue as in SPR 17909, I think you should try it's fix.

G Gene Niles

I think the should dump the notification database and time zones before and after the automated time change. I'm thinking somesetting may be a little off or a double event is somehow queued. In any case, please update this forum if this is resolved as DST is hitting soon here :)

Glenn, Is it the same issue as in SPR 17909?

G Glenn Sobel

Hi Yosi, Based on the description, it does not sound like the same issue. The spr specifies that when the clock hit 2am, the clock was set back to 1 am and the process looped. From the customer's description and the Resource.csv eMscript log, the clock is being reset back to midnight (12 am), not 1am as expected.

Might be possible that MS set the clock back one hour due to DST, and there clock sync app also set the clock back one hour for DST resulting in 2 hours total set back.

D David Meyer

I don't think it will be possible to give step by step what Microsoft does.  From our understanding, Microsoft will register for notification at a certain time.  When that time hits, Microsoft will check if we are currently in DST and need to change to Standard time, (or vice versa for the other time of the year), change the time by 1 hour if needed and set a flag in the registry to indicate the device is set to DST or Standard time. Looking at the resource csv and the backup file, I am not sure what is happening or when the time change is supposed to happen.  When does DST end in the UK (date and time?).  What else does the customer have whcih is syncronizing clocks? Dave

G Glenn Sobel

Thank you for that explanation, I told the TA and he is going to give that to the customer. As per TA the software that is being used to set the time is Astea FXMobile. The DST occurred Oct 30th  - > 31st @ Sun 2am
