Interpreting timestamp format on iDRAC servers

Question

The timestamp format on the DELL iDRAC format I have is the following:

20160714195526.000000+000
20150325225105.000000+000
20150311200640.000000-300

How should I interpret it (I want to parse it to a timestamp object, e.g. get date, time and timezone out of it)?

Answer 1

Baiscally this is: YYYYMMDDhhmmss.Timezone

• YYYY Year four digits
• MM month two digits, zero padded
• DD day two digits, zero padded
• hh hour of day, 24h-system, zero padded
• mm minutes, zero padded
• ss secondy, zero padded

The part behind "." is most probably the time zone in relation to UTC or GMT.
