[cisco-voip] DST problems with 7940s being one hour off on a DST patched system

[Erick Bergquist]

Did you try resetting one phone at a time, to see if that helps? When
I reset in mass the phones were a hour ahead still, but if I did small
batches at a time the phones got the right times. Strange, very
strange.

I'm still not comfy, and wondering what will happen if a bunch of
phones reset at once for some issue, etc. And the server has the right
DST patches. OS is at DST compliant version as well as Call Manager
per the cisco notices. I was thinking of going from SR5d to SR6a to
see if it helped this goofy time situation any but your having
problems on 6a to. Are you sure that you are on a OS version with DST
fix? and have the checkbox checked for adjust timezone checked?

I did have 2 other clients that had the right OS w/DST fix, but Call
Manager was 4.1(3) SR3a and upgrading them to SR6a fixed the time
without these funky issues.

I'm going to try to reset a bunch of phones at once after hours to see
if the time becomes wrong (it is right now).
