thanks..the problem is not actually with the format but the fact that it is
being written in local time not in UTC(Coordinated Universal Time)
Since the events are stored in utc i thought there would be an easy way to
do this. 

explicitly giving the pattern still prints it in local time as does giving
it ISO8601 as the pattern.
Any ideas?
thanks
-Tim

Use this in your properties file:

log4j.appender.MyDestination.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{YYYY-mm-dd
HH:mm:ss,SSS}  %c  %m  %n

Modify the date format after the %d and within the { }  to suit UTC format.

My 2cents worth!!
