This may sound stupid to some but others may say "I was wondering the same thing".... is the daylight savings time correction always the first Sunday of April? It seems I remember not so long ago that it occurred on the last Sunday of March.

It goes without saying, but I am going to say it, make sure that you
select the correct timezone for your location...."W4:00,"  "W5:00," etc.
I'm in the U.S. Central timezone and we use "W5:00" in April and "W6:00"
in October. Obviously, the U.S. East coast and West coast will be
different....

Some time ago someone posted this job for adjusting from and to
daylight
savings time.  I thought I would pass it on, since there are
inquiries.
We have scheduled this job to run every Sunday morning at 1:00 a.m.

!JOB TIMECHG,USER.ACCT;OUTCLASS=LP,8
!if hpday = 1 and hpmonth = 10 and hpdate > 24 then
!  SETCLOCK TIMEZONE = W5:00
!   TELLOP ********************************************
!   TELLOP Changing the system clock to STANDARD TIME.
!   TELLOP The clock will S L O W   D O W N  until
!   TELLOP we have fallen back one hour.
!   TELLOP ********************************************
!elseif hpday = 1 and hpmonth = 4 and hpdate < 8 then
!   SETCLOCK TIMEZONE = W4:00
!   TELLOP *********************************************
!   TELLOP Changing the system clock to DAYLIGHT SAVINGS
!   TELLOP TIME.  The clock jumped ahead one hour.
