Overview

In August of 2005 the United States Congress passed the Energy Policy Act, which changes the dates of both the start and end of daylight saving time (DST) starting in 2007. DST will start three weeks earlier (2:00 A.M. on the second Sunday in March; 3/11/2007) and will end one week later (2:00 A.M. on the first Sunday in November; 11/4/2007) than what had traditionally occurred. The change in daylight saving time (DST) will affect many technology products that are used for scheduling, calculating time, transaction logging, etc.

Two of the third party products used by APTARE StorageConsole - Oracle and Java - require updating. This page provides the documentation and downloads to apply the Oracle update to your Database server, and the Java updates to all the systems where Java components run - i.e. the Portal, Master and Data Collector servers.

Do I need the DST Update?

Yes - You will need to apply the DST update if you have a Portal, Database, Master, or Data Collector server running in a country that is affected by the DST change and the version of software for your initial install was earlier than 6.0.14.

No - You do not need to apply the DST updates if the version of software for your initial install was 6.0.14 or greater. If you have upgraded to version 6.0.14, you still need to apply the update.

IMPORTANT NOTE: These updates assume that you are running APTARE StorageConsole version 5.2 or later. If you are on a version prior to 5.2, you should first upgrade to the latest release and then apply the DST updates.
