ServiceNow Dynatrace Maintenance Window integration: ensuring the start/end times are clock change resistant

 script include code:


startS = grcOutage.begin; startS = this.utcUpdateTime(startS); endS = grcOutage.end; endS = this.utcUpdateTime(endS); utcUpdateTime: function(dTime) { this._dLog(" utcUpdateTime is Called"); var dateTime = dTime; //check if dateTime is diff from Approval Date Time dateTime = this.checkApprovDateTime(dTime); this._dLog(" utcUpdateTime dTime =" + dTime + " ---- dateTime = " + dateTime); var newdateTime = new GlideDateTime(dateTime); var yourDST = this._utcTimeZone(); if (yourDST == 'UTC+00:00') { //No Change to reported value } else { gs.log(yourDST+'dynatraceDST'); newdateTime.addSeconds(3600); } newdateTime = newdateTime.toString(); newdateTime = newdateTime.replace(' ', 'T'); this._dLog(" utcUpdateTime dateTime =" + dateTime + " newdateTime =" + newdateTime); return newdateTime.toString(); }, checkApprovDateTime: function(dateTime) { this._dLog(" checkApprovDateTime is Called"); var resultDate = dateTime; var aEnc = "sysapproval=" + current.sys_id + "^approver.active=true^stateINapproved,not_required"; var grcApp = new GlideRecord('sysapproval_approver'); grcApp.addEncodedQuery(aEnc); grcApp.orderBy('sys_updated_on'); grcApp.query(); if (grcApp.next()) { this._dLog(" checkApprovDateTime dateTime =" + grcApp.sys_updated_on); if (grcApp.sys_updated_on > dateTime) { this._dLog(" checkApprovDateTime Approval Did Not happend in Time"); resultDate = grcApp.sys_updated_on; } else { this._dLog(" checkApprovDateTime Approval happend in Time"); } } this._dLog(" checkApprovDateTime resultDate =" + resultDate); return resultDate; }, _utcTimeZone: function() { this._dLog(" _utcTimeZone is Called"); var zoneId = ''; var testTZ = new GlideDateTime(); var yourDST = testTZ.getDSTOffset(); if (yourDST == 0) { zoneId = 'UTC+00:00'; } else { zoneId = 'UTC+01:00'; } this._dLog(" yourDST =" + yourDST + " zoneId =" + zoneId); return zoneId; },

GlideRecord setValue

setValue(String name, Object value) Sets the specified field to the specified value. Normally a script would do a direct assignment, for example,  gr.category = value . However, if in a script the element name is a variable, then  gr.setValue(elementName, value)  can be used. When setting a value, ensure the data type of the field matches the data type of the value you enter. This method cannot be used on journal fields. If the value parameter is null, the record is not updated, and an error is not thrown https://developer.servicenow.com/app.do#!/api_doc?v=madrid&id=r_GlideRecord-setValue_String_Object
