Hi experts,

Datastage parallel jobs are running one hour prior to the job schedule from the director.
Recently we have changed the timezone from MESZ to MES timezone. DS services are restarted also but still we see jobs running one hour prior to the job schedule.
Could you please share your advise/suggestions.

Does DS.REINDEX ALL help resolve this issue?

Version: DS 11.3x , AIX platform. Client windows 2008 R2.

Appreciate any help.

Thanks
Shahid

I'd be looking at the scheduling service exposed by the application server, to check whether its timezone environment variable (or explicit setting) is correct.

So nowadays that's not cron I take it?

My 11.3.1 still uses crontab...

One internet search suggests to restart the cron service after making changes to TZ (timezone). Talk to your UNIX Admin.

Did you check the time on the Infosphere Server ?
Restarting services wont help unless the server times are updated as well.
