dbms_scheduler jobs scheduling for Day light Savings

Green-bitMar 12 2014 — edited Mar 14 2014

Version: 11.2.0.2.0

Hello Guys, got a bit of a problem on which I am stuck.

There are couple of jobs that are scheduled through DBMS_SCHEDULER to run on 11:20 AM today

select start_date from dba_scheduler_jobs;

START_DATE

3/12/2014 11:20:10.000000 AM -05:00

3/12/2014 11:20:10.000000 AM -05:00

3/12/2014 11:20:10.000000 AM -05:00

3/12/2014 11:20:10.000000 AM -05:00

But now when I do "select systimestamp from dual;" I get the following result

SYSTIMESTAMP

3/12/2014 12:21:33.313791 PM -04:00

I think it is because of the Day light saving that set the clock 1 hour forward last Saturday that this issue arose. Is there any way to fix this issue so that the jobs will run on 11:20AM instead of 12:20PM instead of having to reschedule those jobs again.

I read in one post to do the following, would this help?

BEGIN

DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_scheduler_attribute (

attribute => 'default_timezone',

value => 'US/Eastern');

END;

/

Thank You
