Viya job schedules and daylight savings time (DST)

[jblack38]

Every time we pass a DST date, all of my Viya jobs and report distributions run either an hour earlier or later.  For example, one of the jobs is scheduled to run at 5:15 am.  When you look at the schedule, it says 5:15 am.  Yet since we went off daylight saving time, it has been running at 4:15.  The only way I've found to correct this is to delete and re-create the schedule (for jobs and report distributions).

Is there some setting inside of Viya somewhere that I can use so that jobs and distributions always run at the time they are scheduled?

Thanks!

Sounds like you are running into this:

Yep, that sounds like our problem.
I'll forward this article to our SAS Administrator.
Thanks Greg!
