With all of the comments, only ocbwilg knew or bothered to set this guy straight? The DST change is simple, even if you do not have a patch management system. Nothing a simple script, a file with all of the server names and a some time to let it run won't take care of. No reboot is required, so SLAs do not need to be considered here.
I do agree that any company with seven thousand servers needs patch management. In fact, I call bullshit. There is no way in hell they even operate without one.
