Date format differs in mminfo output

Question

Hi, I am getting date format in different way inside mminfo output in different backserver. Though both the backup servers are in same version. For example in my first backup server I can see below output - (if date filed is single digit then it is concatenated by a 0- zero at the begging) mminfo -q'volume=DHZ021' -rclient,name,savetime,ssretent abc       /proa/dbs                       10/03/15 12/03/15 abc       /proa/dbs                       10/17/15 12/17/15 abc       /proa/dbs                       10/24/15 12/24/15 abc       /proa/dbs                       10/31/15 12/31/15 In second backup server I can see below output- (if date filed is single digit then it is concatenated by a whiet space at the begging) mminfo -q'volume=DHW009' -rclient,name,savetime,ssretent  xyz       /DG-PORA364/EDMP          11/ 1/15 01/ 1/16 xyz       /DG-PORA405/HESP          11/22/15 01/22/16 xyz       /DG-PORA405/arch/HESP     11/29/15 01/29/16 xyz        /DG-PORA451/OHCB          11/22/15 01/22/16 Now my question is - i) Why such two different format in same mminfo command in two different backup servers which are running on same Networker version? ii) How we can standardized date format in mminfo output as liek 1st way ( if date filed is single digit then it is concatenated by a 0- zero at the begging) iii) Is there any option in mminfo command it slef to change the format ? Note: One small observation the 1st backup sever is running on Solaris 10 while the 2nd one is running on Solaris 11 Thanks in advance, Shubhadip Datta

I am not an OS specialist, but why don't you just query your server from the solaris 10 box:    mminfo -s -q ... -r ...

Thanks for your quick reply, yes I have already work around for the same. Even I can update the same date format as per my choice. But my question is why such difference in the date format, is it due to some Networker configuration or OS and which configuration.

Check which locale is set for root (or even startup script).  You are looking at format set for LC_TIME.
