Thank you! We understand from your reply that synchronizing our HMC with the atomic clock (or another server) is one thing, but "pushing" that time into the operating system(s) does not occur without deactivation/activation of the LPAR. There is no "real time" (pardon the pun) way to synchronize VM/VSE's TOD with an external source.

After that, it is on it's own. Confirmed. Note that's not an IPL, that's deactivate and reactive the LPAR. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
