If I understand your question correctly, the systems currently physically in CST will move to the EST location, but still run as if they were at the CST location. That is, their local time will remain CST. The physical location in this case doesn't matter. Change control should still work as it currently does. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
