OEM_Agent DST problem with window server 2003

560818Mar 19 2007 — edited Mar 23 2007
Hi,

I didn't apply the dst patch to my OEM and Agent, system administrator said he applied the OS patch. so as expected, after the reboot of server, the oem_agent won't start any more.

the error message:

'Mon Mar 19 12:40:14 2007::The agentTZRegion value in E:\OEM_agent10g\agent10g/sysman/config/emd.properties is not in agreement with what agent thinks it should be.Please verify your environment to make sure that TZ setting has not changed since the last start of the agent.
If you modified the timezone setting in the environment, please stop the agent and exectute 'emctl resetTZ agent' and also execute the script mgmt_target.set_agent_tzrgn(<agent_name>, <new_tz_rgn>) to get the value propagated to repository -----

*****

I am on eastern timezone.

Following the Metlink note 401834.1"Workaround to EM Agent Restart Problem Due to a Daylight Savings Change".

I did ' emctl resetTZ agent on my target machine.
then, I run ' exec mgmt_target.set_agent_tzrgn('server123:3872','Etc/GMT+4');

It's not helping.

On window, the time is right, but the timezone is still set as 'GMT-5'.

A querry shows:

select timezone_region from mgmt_targets where target_name='server_name':

TIMEZONE_REGION
------------------------
America/New_York

If I do exec mgmt_target.set_agent_tzrgn('server123:3872','Etc/GMT+5' , it's still not working....

Any one has any suggestion? I thought window should have different timezone after apllying the DST patch?

Thanks in advance
