DST... Ready?

Well,

We appear to be ready for the big bad early DST. Yesterday we rolled every single one of our test servers forward and waited for the OS to do the switch. No databases came down (yeah!), unfortunately some of our vendor supplied patches for our large JSP based application seemed to have failed badly as the application simply refused to allow data to be entered "PO create date can not be past PO update date" or something like that.

Now, for the databases where test and production are on the same server - well, that is going to be a "fingers crossed" type of fix.There will still be a large number of IT people in on the morning of the 11th for the old 'just in case'.
