The following works in Unix but not in AIX . Please can you let me know as to what would be the AIX equivalent

One simple fix for your problem is to install GNU date command on your AIX , Otherwise you have to rewrite this snippet using PERL or any other scripting language and then embed it in your bash script . I'm not sure if there any other way to implement this with native tools .
also you'd better to post here you might get quick response rather than posting in this sub forum .
