Daylight Saving Time Brazil 2009/2010

Category: Windows 7 , Windows Server 2003 , Windows Server 2008 , Windows Vista , Windows XP

For the year 2009/2010, summer time in Brazil by the Brazilian government is determined as follows:

  • Daylight Saving Time begins on the third Sunday in October at 00:00:00.
  • Daylight Saving Time ends on the third Sunday in February at 00:00:00.

In the past year Microsoft has updated DST rules for Brazilian time zone - (GMT -3:00) and Brasilia (GMT -4:00) Manaus, in the Windows operating system, with the following parameters:

  • Daylight Saving Time begins on the third Saturday in October at 23:59:59
  • Daylight Saving Time ends on the second Saturday of February at 23:59:59

In 2009, the day after the "Second Saturday in February" corresponded to the "Third Sunday in February," therefore, the rule for the time zone in Windows operating system corresponded with the dates established by the Brazilian government:

However, in 2010, the day after the "Second Saturday in February" is the "Second Sunday of February." This means that the time zone currently defined in the Windows operating system is behind the dates set by the government Basileiro in a week.

Because of the difference explained above, the Windows operating system does not interpret correctly the time related to the end of daylight saving time in Brazil in 2010 (21 February 00:00).

Additionally, the week of "14 - February 20, 2010", the Exchange and Outlook users may experience discrepancies in the calendar - once the operating system is set, appointments created during this week may be delayed by one hour.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WINDOWS USERS - HOME OF THE BRAZILIAN SUMMER TIME

There are no special instructions for transitioning to the start of Daylight Saving Time (October 18, 2009) for the following scenarios:

  • Machines that are updated with KB 955839 and KB 970653 available through the "Windows Update":

  • Machines adjusted according to the instructions published last year in the blog Latam .

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION - END OF SUMMER TIME BRAZIL
