Hi The basic assumption is that this is a lab gizmo and that there is indeed a static adev (or very low frequency phase noise) plot for the OCXO (or Rb). The other assumption is that this plot is quite good (say decreasing or flat to >10,000 seconds).
IF that's all true, then the "running condition" is the pll loop frequency / time constant / cross over that does not degrade that adev (or phase noise) plot with noise from the GPS.
