FYI...
This appears to also be a bug in Application-Bus-Time-Add and Application-Bus-Time-Subtract on 6.3 patch 20. After initially reading this email I assumed it only applied to Application-Bus-Time-Diff, but I did my own testing and all three of these functions are an hour off if you use a timestamp that falls in the new DST range. We've opened a ticket with BMC on this but haven't heard anything yet. This will be a huge problem for us. On a slightly related note - Email Engine patch 20 will generate outbound emails with timestamps that are an hour off if you include timestamp fields within the body of your emails. You might want to be aware of that as well.

In fixing the DST bug, they may have affected (broke) an older process. Process name Application-Bus-Time-Diff appears to now be broken. If you want to test the process yourself, I have included the def file here. simply copy the block of code below and paste it into a notepad file. If you open the form +SS:Test, enter any characters into the character field and hit save, the process attempts to perform a calculation. On our 6.0.1 servers, it passed. On a 6.03.00 patch 020 server, it results in a popup "ARERROR [639] No Workday form could be found on the server" Good luck, and if anyone else out there has run into this, PLEASE let me know at
