You should not add things to your options files which are not defined
as valid for your software.
DATEformat, NUMberformat, and TIMEformat have been obsolete
specifications since TSM 3.7, when such controls were transferred to
locale settings.

The Options table may evidence the options, though not even coded in
your server options file, apparently by virtue of some legacy server
software.
