Correct time (including) DST from Oracle DB to GoldenGate to kafka

in GoldenGate, Streams and Distributed Database (MOSC) Question

Hi,

We are transporting data from an Oracle source database to kafka via GoldenGate bigdata adapter (19.1).

We want to know what the correct time is when the clock changes from Summertime to Wintertime. (e.g. oct 31 2021, this year).

So clock is between 2:00 AM to 3:00 AM, the first time (still summerrtime = GMT+2 in our case) and then when the clock goes through 2:00 AM to 3:00 AM the second time (wintertime = GMT+1). How can we distinguish between these two?

I think this can be done via the local timezone or change all dates in the trailfiles to UTC.

So 2 questions:

  1. How do we get the timezone from GoldenGate to kafka (so GMT+2 or GMT+1 because of DST)
