DBMS_SCHEDULER, daylight savings time issue on schedule.

edited May 21, 2012 11:34AM in Database Utilities (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered
I'm running Oracle 10.2.0.1 on a Windows Server 2003 x64.

I have a job scheduled for 23:00 GMT every night.  All indications say it runs at 00:00 every night.  In fact it runs into another job on another server that it wouldn't if it ran at 23:00.

The start_time parameter says "dd-mon-yy 12.00.00.000000 AM ETC/GMT" with the interval of 23:00:00 daily.

The server time is correct for Daylight Savings Time (actually BST - Brittish Summer Time).

My question is:  Is the scheduler adjusting back 1 hour to GMT?  It certainly looks that way.

If that is the case, what do I tell the scheduler to make it run in BST.

Howdy, Stranger!
