As usually in mainframe world, we have a lot of proofs that mainframe is
better, we can provide citations from "ESA/390 Holy Principles", we can
answer that we have ntp server...
But the only honest answer to the question is "NO, unfortunately we are
not able to synchronize with atomic clock, like other devices in our
server room. Mainframe *can't do it*. We can only use wrist watch as a
time source and then rely on mainframe internal clock."
Of course, after the confession we can go back to our Principles, talk
about our availability, hint that the rest of the world should
synchronize with our CPC...

P.S. I would like to hear that I'm wrong. Preferrably with details - how
to synchronize the mainframe with ntp server or atomic clock.
Preferrably without 9037 Timers, which are expensive and EOM (End Of
Market).
