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?
