Re: DST On New Exchange

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Do you need to rebase appointments?
That will depend on:
- whether the new Exchange server had the correct DST 2007 timezone update applied
- whether it had the Exchange Server 2003 CDO patch applied
- whether clients had the correct timezone updates applied
- whether appointments that were created using the old timezone data were rebased

Thanks Bharat,

Just to make sure, I migrated my Exchange to a new server last January 2008.
Do I need to apply those DST tools?

As other countries have been updating their timezones, Microsoft has
released newer patches for DST. If you've already rebased appointments in
the past, applied the timezone and CDO updates on Exchange Servers, applied
the timezone updates on client PCs, you won't be impacted by DST and
updating your servers with newer DST patches (look at the rollup post above)
shouldn't affect anything.
