Re: Effect on Oracle of changing server time from EST to GMT

Another issue might be related to doing time-based recovery. Oracle has a 
couple of notes on metalink related to changing server time and database 
impact.

Note:1013279.6 - HOW DOES DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME AFFECT THE DATABASE?
Note:77370.1 - What are the effects of changing the system clock on an 
Oracle Server instance?

Well, some jobs (including snapshot refreshes) may get confused, and if
you create or alter objects I wonder how Oracle may handle dependencies
... Fortunately you are moving 5 hours ahead, rather than back, so risks
are probably quite limited.

Good point, Dan. 

If using SCN to flashback then it's a non-issue.

Avoid using date/time stamp to flashback during that 1 hour period. 
Or find out the SCN from SYS.SMON_SCN_TIME table closest to the past time, and use it 
to
flashback.

Guiness Mean Time will not have effect on the time recorded in the  
database, just how it is displayed.
