Remarks
Microsoft SQL Server multiserver administration can be configured to administer instances of SQL Server installed throughout the world. The possibility for job scheduling conflicts or errors can arise.
For example, a job created on June 1, 1998 for single execution on that date, by a master server in Seattle could never execute on a server enlisted from Japan. The Japanese target server, having a local date of June 2, will ignore the job because its defined execution date has passed.
Querying the LocalTime property, and using the TimeZoneAdjustment property in scheduling, can help avoid these potential errors.
