    It depends a bit what you're doing.

    A lot of thought was given to this sort of thing back in 1999. The
    consensus then seemed to be that moving forward in time was definitely safe;
    moving back was less so because of the possibility of over-lapping
    timestamps and log entries. However, whilst it was desirable to re-install
    the system it wasn't necessary.

    The biggest problems would be likely to occur with DBMS which might get a
    bit upset by redo-logs etc with strange dates. AIX itself should cope
    handily enough.

    Subject: Time and date Change

    Hello AIXers,
    we plan to change date and time on a Testmachine to test behaviour of an
    application using Summer and Wintertime.
    Are there any impacts on the OS?
    Will I have to recover the hole System?
