I have just tried the native command 'OPENVM listfile' which 
gives the same timestamp as for the CMS file. Therefore it 
appears that PIPELINES is changing the displayed timestamp.

I have read HELP PIPE BFSSTATE and there is no mention of 
the displayed time being altered.

Should I report it to IBM ?

Subject: BFS Timestamp


I have a file in SFS which is the subject of OPENVM PUT with 
options REP and OLDD.

When I look at the directory using BFSLIST the time stamp is 
4 hours ahead of the timestamp of the file in SFS.

Q TIMEZONE gives EDT     West     04.00.00  Active.

My question is "Is the BFS timestamp in UTC?"

(I have also tried OPENV PUT without option OLDD (defaults 
to NEWDATE) and
OPENV GET with OLDD and they seem to confirm BFS is in UTC 
and SFS EDT)

If the BFS timestamp is set to UTC, is it adjustable ? Where 
can I learn more about it ?

Thanks
Graeme
