TMONMVS still cannot survive a time change and continue to function
though apparently in v4.0 and with a PTF TD03850 on 3.2 it will neatly
shutdown instead of abending.
Our IBM subsystems and z/OS would be fine but we still see a lot of
application code that cannot tolerate local time going backwards so we
also have to take an outage to insure no files get time stamps going
backwards.

We run GMT=GMT and all of our system software can tolerate the change
without waiting an hour. Unfortunately, we have application software
that tracks events with local timestamps and we stay down for the hour
because of that. In our manufacturing processes it is illogical that
process B completed before process A. We have deemed it not worth the
trouble to root out and "fix" all the affected code. We just take the
outage.
