SIRE and Daylight Saving Time

SIRE does not hard code or manage DST adjustments anywhere in the software. We utilize the system clock for all activities. Because of this, we do not expect any impact on our software directly. No SIRE-specific action needs to be taken to protect time sensitive events in the SIRE software.

We strongly recommend you protect your servers and client machines. Please refer to the Microsoft website and your Information Technology department for guidance on what course of action is necessary to protect you during this 4 week period.
