Troubleshooting due date calculation of service target issues

When you try to update the due date of the service target that is related to a Business Time Entity, the due date is miscalculated.

Issue symptom

When you define a business time segment, the end date of the business time segment is set to a date in the past.

Issue scope

In a Server Group environment, this could affect one or more servers.

Resolution

Perform the following steps to update the business time segment to resolve this issue:

1. Select Administration Console > Application Administration Console > Custom Configuration > Service Level Management > Configure Business Time > Shared Entity/Segments.
2. In the Business Time Entity area, select the business time entity related to the service target that has the end date set to a date in the past.
