If I read correctly, the OP later clarified he currently has no

that is true, then I read nothing in STP Implementation that states
SIMETRID with an external dial-out to the atomic clock in the sky
won't still work in this case. z/OS gets the time just fine without STP.
Every day, our new HMC gets time from NIST or other atomic clock source
via the Internet. When we POR, the SE takes the time from the HMC.
is this new on z10? Previously the SE took the time from the CEC once a day
and then the cec took the time from the SE at POR as you say. And then you could set the HMC to sync
from SE. (perhaps I should RTFM on z10 SE ops)
So,
we're in sync at POR time. But then what? Is there something that
"steers" our z10's TOD clock to re-sync with the HMC each day after it
gets updated?
er.. yes.. that'll be STP ;-)
