Curious. No, TSM is not psychic, as far as I know.

Can you post the *complete* output from the following:

1) dsmadmc -id=youradmin -pa=xxxx q ev * *

      (See attached file: q.ev.zip)(this one is several hundred lines long)

2) dsmadmc -id=youradmin -pa=xxxx q sch <domain> <schedname>

Specify the domain and schedule name for one of the scheduled events
showing the goofy times.


      Domain       * Schedule Name    Action Start Date/Time      Duration
Period Day
      ------------ - ---------------- ------ -------------------- --------
------ ---
      SOL            HE2UNX108.2315.- Inc Bk 01/21/04   23:15:00      1 H
1 D  Any
                        SOL.ANY


3) dsmadmc -id=youradmin -pa=xxxx show time

      Current Date and Time on the Server
      ----------------------------------------
      07/14/04   18:23:24
      UTC (GMT) Date/Time is: 07/14/04 22:23:24
      Last Noted Date/Time is: 07/14/04 18:09:34

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
