What is your CLOCK00 entries in SYS1.PARMLIB like?

I think if you code:
STPZONE NO     
&
TIMEZONE W 00.00.00

You would be running UTC and not be affected by DST & Time Zones

Subject: UTC and Daylight Savings Time

I have been requested to investigate the impact of switching "local" time to 
"UTC" time.

We currently use STP to establish the time and offsets for our LPARs, so 
basically we are using UTC time correctly.

However, the requirement may include not changing local time when daylight 
savings time occurs.  The intent is to maintain a consistent 'displayed' time 
world-wide as many places do not adjust times.

Using STP, the local time changes automatically and I am not aware of any way 
prevent it.  

Is anyone aware of how to accomplish this?

Thanks
