Error description

  • AD zOS started task has timestamps in EUROPEAN TIMEZONE
============================================================

The reason for this is mentioned below:-


"The timestamps displayed by the AD DEBUG trace are taken from
the
system clock using the storeclock (STCK) function.   System
clocks are
usually set to GMT/UTC, and the local time zone relative to UTC
is then
set in the CLOCK00 member in PARMLIB.

AD uses the STCKCONV service, which does not take the local time
zone
into account when formatting the date/time from STCK.   So the
customer
is correct - the date/time is displayed by the AD trace are GMT
/ UTC. "

Local fix

  •  NO WORK around

Problem summary

  •  The AD agent was using GMT (UTC actually) for all date /
timestamps in the debug trace

Problem conclusion

  • As part of the 5.1.0.2 release in March 2019, there will now be
the option to set the debug trace timestamps to use the local
time.  This fix will also be made available in the 5.0.5.* fix
