Overview
A new DST button has been added to the System Management area of the System
Provisioning tab on the DNCS Administrative Console. Clicking the DST button
displays the Set Daylight Savings Time Rules window. From this window, you can
configure your system so that DHCTs automatically adjust for daylight saving time
as it is observed in the different regions your DBDS serves. If you have a distributed
system, where the DNCS is in one time zone and remote sites are in other time
zones, daylight saving time is applied on a hub basis, according to the DST Zone ID
setting assigned to the hub.
