Hi all,

I need to convert the current_timestamp obtained from broker to EST. Can someone please advise on how to do this. Please note that we do not know what timezone the broker server will be on. In other words, if we knew the broker would be on PST, we would have simply added an interval of 3 hrs to current_timestamp. However we would not be knowing this and thus cannot hardcode this fact.

I figured that we could use the local_timezone function to obtain the timezone offset on the broker. However this value changes depending on whether it is daylight savings or not. For example this function returns -8.00 on a broker (that is on PST) before daylight savings and -7.00 after daylight savings.

Can someone please advise? Thank you very much.
