Support of sexagesimal variable type

Hi @blourdel

Could you please tell me which command are you trying to collect that contains timestamp? I'll try to check what options do we have.

Regards

Hi,

I am issuing :
regress@hongkong> show system processes extensive
........
PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND
10 root 4 155 ki31 0K 64K RUN 3 431.0H 390.19% idle
9738 root 1 34 0 725M 12044K select 0 0:12 5.18% python
5280 root 4 20 0 5194M 4255M kqread 1 145:33 0.29% rpd

I am after the TIME column : 0:12 145:33
a potential value is 431.0H as well but not sure if we can deal with it.

Yes you're right, that field changes it format across time, at the beginning of this thread I though you were asking other timestamp fields in other junos commands, in those cases I use the xml attribute junos:seconds as a feasible workaround, but sadly is not your case

<date-time junos:seconds="1481112868">2016-12-07 13:14:28 CET</date-time>

FYI, I'm working on a big refresh of the netconf collector, I think this enhancement could be done as part of this effort.
Hopefully I'll have more to share in 1 week
