Server time protocol

Server Time Protocol (FC 1021) requires no special cables to create timing links with other servers.

You can use PCIe Gen3 (ICA SR feature (FC 0176 or FC 0172) fiber optic cables or Coupling Express LR (FC 0433) Ethernet cables to create the Sysplex. IBM z16™ (Model A01) or IBM LinuxONE Emperor 4 (Model LA1) can participate in a timing network with IBM z16 (Model A01), IBM LinuxONE Emperor 4 (Model LA1), IBM z15® Model T02 , IBM LinuxONE III Model LT2, z15, IBM LinuxONE III, z14 (Model ZR1), Rockhopper II, z14 (Models M01, M02, M03, M04, M05), and Emperor II.
