Hello,

Oracle 10.2.0.3.0 on RHEL 4..
A full RMAN backup was scheduled with the Enterprise Manager console, to be executed each night at 11:00PM GM +01.
Time zone on the server is CEST. The backup started fine at 11:00PM (server time).
Last weekend, daylight saving time kicked in, so 02:00AM became 03:00AM. However, the RMAN backup now started at 12:00AM server time, so this means I had to reschedule it at 11:00PM GM +02 to get it starting at 11:00PM (server time) again.
Is this normal behaviour ? Or could this be related to the patch for the American DST changes ?
