Daylight Saving Time and other time changes
Local time changes of less than three hours, such as those caused
by the start or end of Daylight Saving Time,
are handled specially. This only applies to jobs that run at a
specific time and jobs that are run with a
granularity greater than one hour. Jobs that run more frequently
are scheduled normally.
If time has moved forward, those jobs that would have run in
the interval that has been skipped will be run
immediately. Conversely, if time has moved backward, care is
taken to avoid running jobs twice.
Time changes of more than 3 hours are considered to be
corrections to the clock or timezone, and the new time
is used immediately.
