Curious to see if anyone has a server, with multiple databases running where
each database has a different TZ requirement(Pacific, Mountain, Central, and
Eastern). And all databases on the server would use the same Unix acct (aka
oracle).
From what I can gather, Oracle uses the "gettimeofday" call to satisfy the
request for a sysdate call. Thus, one would need to set the OS TimeZone
appropriately since the DB would obtain the date/time from the OS... While I
run thru the manual and metalink; I thought I would see if anyone on the
list has had this experience......
Thanks
Greg
