A new custom property ("com.ibm.ws.logging.iso.date.format") was introduced to specify whether the date and time format in the lo uses a locale-specific format or the ISO-8601 format. If a value true is specified, the ISO-8601 format is used in the logs. The format will be yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ. If a value of false i specified, the date and time are formatted according to the defa locale set in the system. The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.21 and 9.0.5.11.
