We don't have DB2. From what little I know of DB2, all of its logs are
kept in GMT, so nothing is required. There is a discussion about
TIMESTAMPs and other date and time functions in the DB2 manuals. They
indicate that they start from the TOD clock value and then somehow look
at the TIMEZONE or CLOCKnn parameter to determine the local time. I
didn't really understand exactly how they are doing this.

UNIX programs that honor the TZ variable also handle the localtime
correctly, assuming that you have the TZ variable set correctly and the
LE ptfs installed for the new DST.
