Different reports use different time operators:

• All Recover Statistics use "Start Time."
• Device Utilization uses "Time."
• User Audit uses "Event Time."

gstclreport -r "REPORT_PATH -u USER_NAME -P 'PASSWORD' -x REPORT_TYPE -f FILE_NAME -v REPORT_FORMAT -C "OPERATOR" "MONTH DD, YYYY HH:mm AM/PM" "MONTH DD, YYYY HH:mm AM/PM"

Or:

gstclreport -r "REPORT_PATH -u USER_NAME -P 'PASSWORD' -x REPORT_TYPE -f FILE_NAME -v REPORT_FORMAT -C "OPERATOR" "MM/DD/YY HH:mm:SS AM/PM" "MM/DD/YY HH:mm:SS AM/PM"

nve:/opt/lgtonmc/bin # ./gstclreport -r "/Reports/Users/User Audit" -u administrator -P '!Password1' -x pdf -f test  -v table -C "Event Time" "February 13, 2026 12:00 AM" "February 18, 2026 11:59 PM"
