Testing for the DST time changes is being planned here.  It's actually
going to have a minimal impact, but the testing needs to happen.
Anyway, the request is to change the server level dates to the second
Sunday in March to simulate the DST change.
=20
I understand that Oracle should/doesn't use the system dates to keep
transaction continuity.  I was about to give my input that changing the
system date should not have an issue on the database itself until I ran
into metalink note # 253977.1
=20
That note says:
=20
"While opening the database, Oracle compares the given SCN value=20
with the reasonable upper limit value calculated based on the=20
system date. If Oracle detects the provided scn is too large,=20
ORA-600[2252] would be raised."
=20
Now I'm a little concerned that when we change the system date back to
the current correct date, I might have issues.
=20
Anyone have any experience with this?
