I tried this but seems this is not working.

I want to convert BST to America /NY time please.

| eval BST=strftime(TransactTime/1000000000, "%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S %Z" )
| eval TimeZone=BST+" -EST"
| eval ET=strftime(strptime(TimeZone,"%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S %Z"),"%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S %Z")
| table BST, ET

I tried this it didn't work.

First of all it complained about the format of strftime so I changed it to

| eval BST=strftime(TransactTime/1000000000, "%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S %Z" )
| eval NY=strptime(BST."-0500","%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S %Z")
| convert ctime(BST)

| table host, BST, NY, TransactTime
