Changing DST Rules
Quick Path: DNCS Administrative Console > DNCS tab > System Provisioning
tab > DST > [Select DST Zone ID] > [Change Desired Fields] > Save
As your system changes or is upgraded, you may need to change a DST rule.
Notes:
As your system changes or is upgraded, you may need to change a DST rule.
Notes:
Once you set up a DST rule, that rule remains in effect for each subsequent year;
you should not need to adjust the rule unless you upgrade your system release
(SR) software.
Always verify that the correct DST rule is used by the appropriate hubs. Verify
that the Timezone and DST Zone ID settings are set correctly in the Hub
window. These settings must be correct because the DNCS uses them to
broadcast DST data to set-tops in the hubs.
