> My suggestion has always been to get a 9037-2 In my understand, the STP was designed to keep a pool of z9 machines syncronized without the need of a 9037, and it is fully supported by the newer zOS. One of the z9 can be syncronized with a External server (or not) and act like the 9037 for the others. When one of the machines in the pool isn't a Z9 (without the STP), the 9037 stil is necessary. Into each machine, doesn't matter for the LPARs if the clock was externally syncronized or not.
