Synopsis

If a Card in an ETM^® 2100 or 3200 Appliance is not connected to the ETM Server during the change to/from Daylight Savings Time, when the Card reconnects to the Server, only Span 1 properly updates the offset from GMT. Spans 2-4 retain the old offset and potentially fail to execute time-based Policy correctly.The offset is updated correctly if the Card is connected to the Server during the change.

Versions Affected

ETM® System v3.0 and later.

To restart all of the Spans on a Card

1. Right-click the Card, then click ASCII Management Interface.
2. In the Enter command for Span box, type:
   RESTART ALL

All of the Spans are restarted and properly updated.
