How to get past 30 mins time in Solaris?

Hi guys,

could you help to find a way to get the past 30 mins time in solaris.

version:

Code:
bash-3.00# uname -a
SunOS solaris 5.10 Generic_142910-17 i86pc i386 i86pc

I had tried the following ways, it works fine in GNU Linux, but doesn't work in Solaris.

Code:
[root@book ~]# date
Tue Apr  2 01:01:49 CST 2013
[root@book ~]# date --date="-30 minutes"
Tue Apr  2 00:32:02 CST 2013
[root@book ~]# date -d '-30 minutes'
Tue Apr  2 00:32:27 CST 2013

thanks!

NAME
stMktime, stWriteTime - date and time handling SYNOPSIS
#include <config.h> #include <sttk.h.h> time_tstMktime (char *string); char*stWriteTime (time_t date); DESCRIPTION
stMktime scans the given string and tries to read a date and time from it. It understands various formats of date strings. The following is a list of all valid formats, optional parts in brackets. [Tue] Jan 5[,] [19]93 This includes the standard asctime(3) format. Jan 5 With no year given, the year defaults to the current year. [19]93/01/05 This notation requires month and day represented by exactly two digits. 5.1.[19]93 This is the usual German notation. 5.1. German notation referencing the current year. A certain time, given together with the date must always have the following form. hours:minutes[:seconds] Each of the fields must be an integer value within the proper range (hours: 0-23, minutes and seconds: 0-59). Values below 10 may be written as one digit numbers. The time value may be placed anywhere in the date string: at the beginning, at the end, or somewhere in the middle. Any amount of white- space may be given between a field of the time value and the separating colon. The time is always considered to be local time. stWriteTime generates a time string similar to asctime(3) from its date argument. SEE ALSO
asctime(3) BUGS
Time Zone Names within the time string (like `MET') are not handled properly. In most cases they will cause a failure. sttk-1.7 Thu Jun 24 17:43:35 1993 sttime(3)
