Symptoms

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR

When job services is deployed to a timezone which observes Daylight Savings Time, the Project Arbiter job (responsible for queuing project publication jobs) stops running on the day/hour of the timezone transition to Daylight Savings.  For example (using "London/Europe"):

When the job runs between the 1-2 AM hour (1-2 AM GMT = 2-3 AM BST on 31Mar24), the job's update_date reflects a time between 1-2 AM (which would reflect GMT), and stops running.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

The Arbiter should run as expected, even when the clock changes from Standard Time to Daylight Savings Time.
