Actually, only recurring meetings are stamped with a time zone. Single
Instance meeting aren't. That's why the tool needs to be run. BTW and that's
only Exchange 2003 and earlier, Exchange 2007 DOES stamp every meeting with
time zone information.
The tool basically moves all single instance meetings one hour during that 3
week period when the computer wouldn't have known that DST started. These are
for previously scheduled meetings.
One thing to keep in mind, if you patch the workstation OS, you want to run the
calendar tool ASAP. As soon as you patch the OS, the computer till know about
DST and schedule the meetings correctly. When you then run the tool on these
correctly scheduled meetings, it will still move them by an hour.

Per the article, yes, you have to. But if you read the article that says how
Outlook stamps Calendar time, it makes it a little confusing as to why we need
to run this tool. All calendar items are stamped with GMT. Then, based on the
client Time zone settings, the Calendar item's time should be converted to the
local time. So if the client and server are patched, it should be sufficient to
convert the GMT stamps into local time. I am trying to research more into this.

Is it necessary doing this if both server and clients are fully patched with
wsus?
