Correct timestamp format for this dbx column

I have a datetime SQL column that I am indexing with the DBX app. I am trying to figure out the correct timestamp format to use for an output like: 1355960605.253

Thanks

This looks like epoch time to me. If it is, then Splunk will figure it out properly. You could also put this in props.conf

[yoursourcetypehere]
TIME_FORMAT=%s%3N

If you want to give Splunk a little more help, you might add a TIME_PREFIX setting and MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 20

Refer to Configure timestamp recognition in the manuals for more info.
