George, Perhaps the timezone setting for z/OS Unix System Services is set incorrectly.
Login to either TSO OMVS or telnet directly, and issue the 'date' command: # date Wed Aug 3 08:00:25 CDT 2011 # Does it show the correct time and date? If not, issue 'echo $TZ' command to display the current setting of the TZ environment variable: # echo $TZ CST6CDT # If this is incorrect, you need to find where it is being set. Commonly set in /etc/profile (this is where it is set in the IBM supplied sample), or /etc/rc or $HOME/.profile Dana ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
