Using a Negative Production Day Offset 
Agent Running Ahead of the Master
Setting a negative production day offset moves the start of the production day back from midnight. In the example below, 
the difference between time zones is shown with a solid arrow and the production day offset is shown in a dotted arrow. 
The example shown below has a negative 4 offset so the start of the production day is moved back four hours behind 
the start of the calendar day. A job defined to run at 2200 on the production day of August 11th is launched at 1600 on 
August 10th on the master due to the time difference.
