Or somebody does a weird T CLOCK= command. The TOD clocks must be in sync. But the local times may differ. For the truly strange (like me): Imagine a sysplex where there is a different z/OS image for every possible "time zone" in which the company does business. The users in that time zone are directed to their z/OS image.
