UtcDateTime

Boolean

false

Purpose

The UtcDateTime parameter specifies whether the date and time stamp for the entries in the JADE message log files are in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or local time.

If the UtcDateTime parameter is not specified or it is set to <default>, the default value of false indicates that log entries are local time.

When a JADE executable starts up (for example, jade.exe or jdbutilb), a new current UTC Time and Local Time line are logged with the Invocation: entry. UTC dates have dash (-) separators; local dates have slash (/) separators.

The following is an example of the jommsg.log file output when the UtcDateTime parameter is set to true.
