Description

There are differences in the timezone data between StreamBase 7.6 (JDK 8_u91) and StreamBase 7.7 (JDK 8_u181). There was a change in the Daylight Saving Time (DST) schedule this year.

How can I update SB 7.6?
Is anything needed to correct the timezone when it changes again?

Issue/Introduction

Administrative Guidance

Resolution

Please use the Oracle Java SE "Timezone Updater Tool" described here:
  https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/documentation/tzupdater-readme-136440.html
To find all the embedded JRE/JDK instances, see the "Systemwide Usage" section of this document.

This is the preferred solution and should be redone whenever regions you interact with change DST schedules, and at a minimum once a year to pick up changes you might not otherwise be aware of.
