Re: Converting Unix Jan 01 1970 UTC epoch datetime stamp to iSeries EST datetime stamp

Is this of interest?

"QUTCOFFSET Coordinated Universal Time Offset. Specifies the difference in hours and minutes between UTC, also known as Greenwich mean time, and the current system time. "

Can you add these hours and minutes to the date you receive?

Has anyone already created a routine to convert a Unix datetime stamp which is in seconds from Jan 01 1970 and is in UTC time to an iSeries datetime stamp adjusted for local time zone (in my case just US Eastern). I have the conversion from Unix to iSeries datetime stamp working but I can't figure out how to do the time zone adjustment. The time zone adjustment needs to be made based on the datetime stamp I am receiving not the current datetime that it is being processed.
