Hi All , I have been asked to schedule an event based on different time zone (IST) .Currently the local system time in mainframe is Central time.
Time zone (IST) has been defined
I have created a below test event
EVENT ID(DP.DALD_PUSHTEST) SYSTEM(DALD) REPLACE
SCHEDULE 02.00 IST MONTHLY STARTING TUE 21ST MAY 2019
INVOKE 'DPCJCDS0.ESPWORK.PROC(PUSHTEST)'
EVENT NEXT DUE AT LAST RUN SYS HC SC
DP.DALD_PUSHTEST ,15.30.00 2019/05/20 ,2019/04/20 DALD , 0 , ,0 ,
Question 1:
We used SYSZONE(NO) so it does not spring forward and fall back along with to the system time.
Now the event is running at 2 am IST and 3.30 pm CT , Daylight saving ends on Nov 3rd .After that , event should run at 2 am IST and 2.30 pm CT. Basically IST should not change but CT should change. Above setup will work in the desired way right?
Question 2:
Is there any way to test it ? because when I check the next run after Nov 3rd it still shows 3.30 pm CT as below
NEXT 99 DP.DALD_PUSHTEST
