How do production sites deal with changing the system time ?  

	Do you do it at reboot ?  
	While everything else is running ?  
	Do you shutdown	accounting before you do it ?  
	Accounting complains with

	   ACC-W-INVACCREC, record # has invalid or unrecognized format

	apparently when trying to read dates in the future...

	What about two different times (an hour apart) in a cluster
	for 30-45 seconds ?

Just trying to prepare for the upcoming time change - thanks for the help !
