Hi,

I have one more question, regarding this topic.
If is there some application on top of this, dose it require stopping of traffic to this server and rebooting or not.
I did not find any information to stop and reboot or not.

Tnx,
Mario

Only you can answer to this, we have no idea what your server is running...
If you can afford a reboot do so!
Now depending what was running (database? ) the issues you will encounter are more to do with what will the TZ have for effect, normally (well HP-UX anyway) changing the Time zone should not have side effects since it is using in internal UTC ( meaning reboot not necessary) but what do the applications running use? the side effects with schedulers are unpredictable... (shutdown the scheduler is a MUST here) so stop all applications.
Is it going back in time or forward after change? The possible issues with application will arise if going back in time ( applications hate to see it wrote in the future...)
