Daylight-Saving Time Extension
VMware, VMware ESX January 24th. 2007, 8:06pmTo all of my U.S. based vmware ESX users, don’t forget that extended daylight-saving time will begin March 2007, to comply with the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Spring forward will start three weeks earlier (March 11th, at 2:00 a.m.), and fall back will start on November 4th at 2:00 a.m
VMware has produced an update for the affected products.
