Axton Grams On 12/7/06, Easter, David <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: Hi Mike, As per the posted web page, 6.0.1 users will be affected but no DST patch will be made available for the 6.0.1 release. Only 6.3 and 7.0.01 are to be patched. Unfortunately, the affected libraries in 6.0.1 (and 5.1.2) are not being patched by the vendor that supplies BMC with those libraries - so 6.0.1 and 5.1.2 cannot be patched to resolve the issue. The affected libraries are used in areas such as the API and Mid-Tier. The internal server itself uses the Operating System for DST. Folks are certainly encouraged to emulate the DST change in a lab situation to determine how affected their specific operations will be. Thanks, -David J.

I've read that there are patches for 6.3 and 7.0. How about 6.0? As I understand it, this release is on the cusp, but still supported. It'll go end-of-life (unsupported) when ARS 7.5 is released - later in 2007. It seems to me that there should be a patch for ARS 6.0 as well. ( 6.0.1, if it matters).

If you look at the chart, the resolution is: "Install AR system 6.03 with Patch 20, or 7.0.01. Follow instructions for those AR releases." The reason it says 1/15/2007 for the resolution date is because that is when the Patch 20 for AR System 6.03 will be available. Note that, as posted by me earlier, that 7.0.01 will also require patch 001 which should be out by end of this month. The chart will be updated with this information shortly. Thanks, -David J.

There is no way that my current production 5.1.2 hardware will run either 6.3 or 7.x adequately so upgrading is not an option, and at the rate our ITSM 7 build has been going we probably won't be in production on 7 by March.

I have submitted my question a month ago. The reply from BMC was "At this time we are not aware of the need for any patch." It is not much time left for testing and rolling out the patch before March. In fact, we have started inputting the change records for next year.
