Unix Time Stamp

George Nguyen — Wed, 13 Jul 2005 16:37:38 GMT

Hi all I've gotten the email notification to work but when I recieve the page I'm getting in a unix timestamp can anybody help me out with this I want to see regular system time?
Here is what i have in my bat file
@echo off
echo From: OpenView@enbridge.com >>c:\temp\test.txt
echo To: test@yahoo.com >>c:\temp\test.txt
echo Subject:D: %1 on %2 >>c:\temp\test.txt
echo.>>c:\temp\test.txt
echo.>>c:\temp\test.txt
echo %1 is unmanaged, on %2. >>c:\temp\test.txt
copy c:\temp\test.txt c:\inetpub\mailroot\pickup\

del c:\temp\test.txt

Automatic Action Command Line:
C:\\temp\\test1.bat $2 $5

Example:
r-springville-s0.enbusa-netequip.net is unmanaged, on 1121290945(I want to change this).

George,

This query appears to be in the incorrect forum. This forum is for the OpenVMS operating system.

Looking at your batch stream, I suspect that this is a Windows question. I suggest that you re-post the question there.

George,

In the meantime, please note that the UNIX standard timestamp is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970.

If this is an OpenVMS question, here's some Q&D DCL to convert a Unix time stamp to OpenVMS system time format.

Cursory testing. The value 1121290945 translates to 13-JUL-2005 21:42:25, which seems plausible.

$ IF p1.EQS."" THEN INQUIRE p1 "Unix time"
$ t=F$INTEGER(p1)
$ s=t/60
$ d=":"+F$STRING(t-s*60)
$ t=s
$ s=t/60
$ d=":"+F$STRING(t-s*60)+d
$ t=s
$ s=t/24
$ d="-"+F$STRING(t-s*24)+d
$ b="1-JAN-1970"
$ loop: IF F$INTEGER(s).GT.9999
$ THEN
$ b=F$CVTIME("''b'+9999-0","ABSOLUTE","DATE")
$ s=s-9999
$ GOTO loop
$ ENDIF
$ b=F$CVTIME("''b'+''s'''d'","ABSOLUTE")
$ SHOW SYM b
$ EXIT
