On Solaris, I use:

/bin/dsmc i | /usr/local/bin/adsm.dump.timestamper /var/log/dump.log

where adsm.dump.timestamper:

#!/bin/sh
read LINEIN
READRC=$?
if [ $READRC -ne 0 ] ; then exit 1 ; fi
while [ $READRC -eq 0 ] ; do
#       TSTAMP=`/usr/bin/date +%m/%d/%y.%H:%M:%S`
        TSTAMP=`/usr/bin/date +%D%t%T`
        echo $TSTAMP "$LINEIN" >> $1
        read LINEIN
        READRC=$?
done

Without adsm.dump.timestamper, one does not get timestamps on the
messages.
