I don't know what Oracle does when clock is moved back, but cron on HP/UX uses the first occurence of time, and ignores the second. For example, if you have a job scheduled at 1.30 AM, then it would be executed only once at the first occurence of 1.30 AM.
One of the application we have relies on time stamp. So we simply
have an one hour outage when clock is moved back one hour.
I would be interesting to find out how redo logs handle day light savings
time.
