There's not really a white paper - although you can learn some interesting things from the DST info that was distributed when the U.S. and other countries changed the start/end dates. That occurred during the life of AR System 7.0.01 so you can still find that bulletin here: 06-Mar-2007 Daylight Saving Time (DST) and BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.0.01 PDF<http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/87/89/68789/68789.pdf> In addition, there are references to Daylight Savings Time and their effect on Business Time in the documentation: BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.5.00 Configuration Guide 16-Jan-2009 PDF<http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/53/75/95375/95375.pdf> "Business Times commands take Daylight Saving Time (DST) into consideration. See "Application-Bus-Time2-Add" on page 227 for an example." And on page 231: "Using application commands with daylight saving time In the following examples, assume that the AR System server is in Pacific Standard Time (US and Canada, GMT -8:00) and daylight saving time occurs on March 11, 2007 2:00:00 a.m." -David J.

Ie: For open incidents that have a SLA/OLA attached to them. What happens when the time is reverted back at the end of daylight savings (ie: loses an hour) ITSM 7.5 Oracle 10g Thanks Nick _Platinum Sponsor: [email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _Platinum Sponsor: [email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ **************** CAUTION - Disclaimer ***************** This e-mail contains PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
