From: Xavier 1 Chavanet A valid SQL syntax for your request is : select node_name,pwset_time from nodes where cast((current_timestamp-pwset_time) days as decimal)> 100 Sorry, I have no electronic documentation availlable about SQL92.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Do any of you out there have links to a SQL reference for ADSM ( I already have the documentation from the Administrator's guide) or a SQL 92/93 reference? I am interested specifically with doing date calculations using fields from DB, BACKUPS, and FILESPACES and NODES. Particularly, I need to be able to add & subtact dates at a whim. THe command line adsm client allows queries against ACTLOG like so: q actlog begindate=TODAY-1 begintime=17:00:00 enddate=TODAY endtime=05:59:59 effectively delivering me a specific date range from the activity log. Utilizing the same general syntax (which does not work), I think you can ascertain what I'm trying to get from the following: Example: (from the shell) dsmadmc -id=id -pa=pa -outfile=out.file -commadelimited "select NODE_NAME,PWSET_TIME from NODES where PWSET_TIME>TODAY-100" I want a listing of all PWSET times older than around 100 days. Thataways I can harass those folks to change their passwords (Hospital policy prevents from using PW aging techniques...one person can't get logged in fast enough, someone has less of a chance of surviving trauma). So then, to acheive the above desired result, what would my syntax be to select all the node_name(s) and PW_SET dates older than 100 days? Thanks!
