Summary

Canada time zones missing 2007 DST update

Error

Service Manager 7.0 - Canada has adopted the changes to Daylight Saving Time which were implemented by the United States in 2007.  While the tzfiles for U.S. standard time zones have been updated in Service Manager 7.0 to reflect these changes, the tzfiles for the corresponding time zones in Canada have not.

Cause

tzfiles for the following Canada standard time zones were not updated and reflect the switchover dates in force prior to 2007:

Canada/Atlantic
Canada/Central
Canada/East-Saskatchewan
Canada/Eastern
Canada/Mountain
Canada/Newfoundland
Canada/Pacific
Canada/Yukon

Fix

QCCR1E27919 has been opened to address this issue.  Currently, it is being evaluated for inclusion in the Service Manager 7.10 release.

Workaround - Manually update the switchover dates for the following time zones:

Canada/Atlantic
Canada/Central
Canada/East-Saskatchewan
Canada/Eastern
Canada/Mountain
Canada/Newfoundland
Canada/Pacific
Canada/Yukon
