PDMWorks and daylight savings time, screwed up again???

Did they screw it up again? I remember one time when we had a problem
with pdmworks and daylight savings time that caused all of our local
copies appear to be newer than what was in the pdmworks vault. It
appears that I am having that same problem again this morning. I opened
an assembly comprised of several parts from the vault to my hard drive
and I de-selected to option to open the parts (meaning that the
documents were never opened in solidworks). I then took a look at my
local view of pdmworks and all the documents I just downloaded from the
vault were showing that they are newer than what is currently in the
vault. I tried to reload a few of those local documents from the vault
and after refreshing my local view those local documents still appear
to be newer than the vault copies. Is anyone else seeing this problem?
Yeah I already know the first response will be "Have you restarted the
pdmworks service yet?" I am going to give that a try and see what
happens. In the mean time let me know if anyone else is seeing this
problem.

Thanks, Sam

 

Just in case anyone is interested restarting the pdmworks service
seems to fix this issue.

Or, you could move to Indiana.

 

Or Saskatewan is another no time change option for a move...

My VAR e-mailed me last week about this problem. Here is what they had to
say about it.

Daylight Savings Time begins this Sunday, April 3. For some customers using
PDMWorks this can cause issues whereby documents in the PDMWorks local view
are indicated as being out of sync with documents in the vault. This can
quickly be remedied by stopping and starting the PDMWorks service with the
validate structure flag and tree rebuild flags checked.

I am running off a local vault ( vault,SWx, and all associated files on
the same computer). Oddly enough, I had the same issue.
