Changing the RECON data sets to output time stamps in local time of origin

If the listing of the RECON data set does not list the offset value for time stamps, the record might have been created when the offset value was different from the current offset value. Using DBRC commands to change or delete such a record will result in a record-not-found condition because the current offset is applied if it is not included in the time stamp parameter of the command.

To change the RECON data set to output time stamps in local time of origin, when they were created, use one of the following:

CHANGE.RECON TIMEFMT(O,O,P,4,PERM)

CHANGE.RECON TIMEFMT(O,O,P,2,PERM)

This will permanently change the RECON data set to output time stamps when the records were originally created with the appropriate offsets in punctuated four-digit or two-digit year formats. The time stamp listed can be used in commands such as the following:

CHANGE.PRILOG STARTIME('2007.063 16:11:58.123456 -08:00') -
 DSSTART('2007.063 16:11:58.123456 -08:00') ERROR RLDS
