I'm considering setting time to GMT for z/VM to eliminate the need for

for something as silly as clock changes that made farmers happy 100
years
ago.  It was nearly a month after the change to CDT that we IPL'd z/
VM, and
that was because the box needed a POR.

So, because we don't have any users who would be confused by the
discrepancy
between their watch and z/VM, are there any downsides to setting
the clock
to GMT?

You should always keep the real system clock in GMT (oops, UTC).
