Hi,

I'm looking for a useful monatomic timestamp property that can be used for
rate-limiting calculations in rules.

'parse_time($timegenerated)' mostly works, but when there are local time
adjustments happen like daylight saving and time goes backwards.

https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/master/configuration/properties.html#system-properties
https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/master/rainerscript/functions/rs-parse_time.html

A $timegenerated-utc property would not have daylight saving timezone
issues, but does not appear to be available. Similar $now-utc is available,
but it does not have second resolution to be useful to convert to a unix
timestamp with parse_time().

Is there a high precision utc timestamp property available?

Thanks,
Nick
