Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.0

Configuration notes

If you configure a time zone for which DST is applicable and you want to downgrade OS10 to an earlier release that does not support DST changes, do one of the following:

• Before you downgrade, disable the DST configuration or update the setting using the clock timezone command to specify only the local time zone.
• After the downgrade is complete, ignore the CLI error and reconfigure the setting using the clock timezone command to specify only the local time zone.
