Management Console Schedules and Daylight Savings Time Change

Question / Problem: 

After Daylight Savings Time adjustment, Management Console schedules are running an hour earlier (or later). Why is this happening?

Answer / Solution: 

This occurs because, when using a Simple schedule, the schedules will run every x hours and not at a specified time.

(this is why this problem usually affects daily schedules)

Example:

If a schedule is set as follows:

It will run every 24 hours starting on Jan 15th 2019 at 14:50.

And when daylight saving starts, it will run 1 hr later than expected.

 

 

To configure schedules to run at specific times regardless of DST, use the Cron option.
