Activating the Local Time Zone Change

Start of instruction setTo activate the local time zone change:

  1. Change the local time zone in the operating system.

  2. On z/OS, z/VSE, and BS2000 systems, issue any command (for example DSTAT) from the operator console to the Adabas nucleus.

    Notes:

    1. The ADADBS OPERCOM function may not be used to activate the local time zone change. The command must be issued from the operator console.
    2. If commands were being logged on the CLOG when the local time zone was changed, Software AG recommends that you use the FEOFCL command from the operator console to activate the change. In this way, the same dual CLOG will not contain time stamps from before the change as well as after its activation.
