Time2 is a four byte field that records when the TDP sends the request to the Teradata Database.
| In this language... | The variable name for Time2 is... |
|---|---|
| COBOL | DBCAREA-TDPDBO-TIME |
| PL/I | TDPDBO_TIME |

| Time2 is used by... | To... |
|---|---|
| applications | read |
After a call to DBCHCL for the first fetch function on the specified request and if Return-time is set to ‘Y‘, the application can obtain the value of Time2.
The Time2 field is four bytes long and contains an unsigned binary timestamp. The difference between Time2 and Time1 yields the elapsed time between those two points in processing the request. The precision for Time2, or the differences between Time2 and Time1, is specified by the Timing-precision option. The validity of the Time2 field is indicated by the Time2-status field.
