Summary

The TS_UNIQUE_CREATE_ procedure returns a 128-bit timestamp that is unique to the system it

is generated on and any system in the same EXPAND network. The header files for this procedure

can be found in cextdecs for C/C++ programs and in extdecs0 for pTAL programs.

The template definition of the unique 128-bit timestamp is:

STRUCT NSK_UNIQUETIMESTAMP128 (*);

int(64) NS[0:1];

end;

NOTE: The procedure calls, TS_UNIQUE_CONVERT_TO_JULIAN_ and TS_UNIQUE_COMPARE_,

also use the NSK_UNIQUETIMESTAMP128 structure template.

NOTE: The TS_UNIQUE_CREATE_ procedure is supported only in H-series and J-series RVUs.
