PI14217: OMPELOG TIMESTAMP DOES NOT REFLECT SYSTEM TIME

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• By default OMPELOG is set active. This results in messages that
  go to JESMSGLG and messages that go to SYSPRINT being written to
  the same DD OMPELOG.
  
  The timestamps in the OMPELOG are not adjusted for the local
  system offset to GMT.
  

Local fix

• The OMPELOG can be turned off by setting
  OMPELOG=INACTIVE
  in member OMPEOPTS of the RKD2PAR and / or RKD2PARU datasets,
  which ever is first in the concatenation

  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  The messages in OMPELOG are prefixed by a date/time string.
  This string contains the value from the hardware clock.
  The hardware clock may be set to a value other than local time.
  
  PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
  Adjust the hardware clock value using the local date and time
  offset. Format the adjusted value for use in the OMPELOG.
  
  KEYWORDS:
