Naively running zdump from a Fedora system against one of the files in /etc/zoneinfo looks like it did the right thing... so I suspect there's nothing particularly special about the Netapp tzdata files. In fact comparing the output of zdump -v on EST5EDT in /etc/zoneinfo from a filer, and /usr/share/zoneinfo from a Fedora system, didn't show any differences.
Are you sure thats a good test? I tested it out on Solaris platform and looks like zdump reads its local zonefiles and not the filers zonefiles.
See example on Solaris.
From a solaris host running 2.8 and without the DST patch
zdump -v /filer01/etc/zoneinfo/PST8PDT |grep 2007 /filer01/etc/zoneinfo/PST8PDT Fri Feb 16 22:40:20 2007 UTC = Fri Feb 16 21:40:20 2007 /file isdst=0 /filer01/etc/zoneinfo/PST8PDT Sun Apr 1 02:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Apr 1 01:59:59 2007 /fileisdst=0 /filer01/etc/zoneinfo/PST8PDT Sun Apr 1 03:00:00 2007 UTC = Sat Mar 31 19:00:00 2007 /etc/zoneinfo/PDT isdst=1 /filer01/etc/zoneinfo/PST8PDT Sun Oct 28 01:59:59 2007 UTC = Sat Oct 27 17:59:59 2007 /etc/zoneinfo/PDT isdst=1 /filer01/etc/zoneinfo/PST8PDT Sun Oct 28 02:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Oct 28 01:00:00 2007 /file isdst=0
Same command run from a Solaris 10 box that has the PDT patch installed: zdump -v /filer01/etc/zonefinfo/PST8PDT |grep 2007 /filer01/etc/zonefinfo/PST8PDT Fri Feb 16 22:42:59 2007 UTC = Fri Feb 16 21:42:59 2007 /file isdst=0 /filer01/etc/zonefinfo/PST8PDT Sun Mar 11 02:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 2007 /file isdst=0 /filer01/etc/zonefinfo/PST8PDT Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 2007 UTC = Sat Mar 10 19:00:00 2007 /etc/zonefinfo/PDT isdst=1 /filer01/etc/zonefinfo/PST8PDT Sun Nov 4 09:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:59:59 2007 /etc/zonefinfo/PDT isdst=1 /filer01/etc/zonefinfo/PST8PDT Sun Nov 4 10:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 09:00:00 2007 /fileis dst=0
maybe it works differently(correctly) on Fedora, but don't have one to test. Wish there was a foolproof way to test the filers after applying the patch, -G

Try this KB article. It shows you how to install the files w/o the ONTAP upgrade since your older boxes won't be able to run the versions with the fix.

Anyone Have any luck getting the DST files for the timezone change from Netapp? Have a few older out of support F760 and C1105.
Just now ran the "eazy upgrade", where you get the timezone file direct from netapp off the filer. Worked like a charm, took about 3 minutes counting login time.
As an aside, it's the same timezone file Solaris systems use and can be put on solaris boxes to help with the fix.
