A few weeks ago, there were a handful of notes on the upcoming Daylight Savings Time change and the solutions from different vendors.
Those notes indicated java patches, O/S patches, etc. and various sources and procedures to obtain and install them. My impression was that some vendors were either unaware or unsure of the complete scope of the issue, and so I requested additional assurances. The latest responses that I had received (from two of our vendors) indicated that they were conducting a more thorough investigation, and that results/procedures would be posted near late February. Given that many environments are shared, either with other users or other applications, the scope of the testing and the groups involved needs to be broadened in order to insure compatibility with apps other than backup software. Unfortunately, a late February announcement doesn't leave a lot of time to put those changes through our testing and implementation lifecycle. I'm fairly certain some type of solution(s) will be published, but not so certain that it will happen in a timely matter. Has anyone else heard similar/dissimilar news? Is anyone else also getting vague responses on the issue?
