You will need to update the time zone data associated with the JRE's on the Spectrum servers (SpectroSERVER and OC). To do this, do a search for all java.exe files in the "win32app" folder and run the tzupdate jar file with each uncompressed copy (there are some copies of java in zip files, don't worry about these). Once this is done, restart the Spectrum services and processes. You should also be running JRE 1.6.0 update 2 on each OneClick user machine as well, or you can run the tzupdate file against these clients if you require an earlier version. If you want to ensure clients only use Update 2 or above, you can modify the oneclick.jnlp file to check the java version being used is by configuring the j2se version as '1.6.0_02+'. I currently use JRE 1.6.0 Update 7 with no issues and I haven't experienced any problems on any of the Spectrum servers I support when performing the above.
The tzupdater can be obtained from the Java/Sun website.If you run Report Manager, you may also require a patch for BOXI otherwise reports scheduled around DST changeovers may not run correctly - this will be need to requested from CA Support.

I'm living in Tasmania and here the daylight saving hasn't ended yet (we still have 1 more week), system time is fine but Spectrum looks like it changed the hour. I've been searching the docs but I couldn't find anything on daylight saving. I have restarted Spectro Server and OneClick but noting happened; I thought Spectrum uses system time (not its own) - is anyone aware if there is a solution about this? Can Spectrum time be changed? Platform Windows 2003, Spectrum version 8.1 Thanks, Regards, Eugen NAIMAN CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER The information in this transmission may be confidential and/or protected by legal professional privilege, and is intended only for the person or persons to whom it is addressed.
