Snapshot Schedules Must be Manually Edited for Daylight Savings Time

When snapshot schedules are created under Standard Time, the schedules continue to execute at the originally scheduled Standard Time, even though the storage modules are operating under Daylight Savings Time.

For example, if a schedule is configured under Standard Time to run at 2:00 PM, then the schedule initially runs (under Standard Time) at 2:00 PM. Then, when the local time changes to Daylight Savings Time, the schedule starts running at 3:00 PM instead of 2:00 PM. This is happening because the schedule is operating as if Daylight Savings Time doesn't exist; so the schedule continues to execute at 2:00 PM Standard Time. The Storage System Software does not include automatic adjustments for Daylight Savings Time.

The workaround for this issue, if you want snapshot schedules to operate at the same relative time all year, is that you must manually edit the snapshot schedules when the time changes in the spring and autumn.
