I believe that you can have a mixed CTN where one CEC doesn't have STP, but in
that case the external time source must be the 9037 and I'm pretty sure that at
least one of the CECs must be both STP and 9037 capable. I don't know what the
implications are from converting from a pure STP environment back to a mixed
environment, but it seems like when we did the conversion to STP there was some
sort of fall-back provision.
Of course if you've been STP-only for some time there may be caveats that makes
building a mixed environment unpalatable. Like I said, I don't remember the
details, but there are a couple of redbooks out there on STP conversion and
failure recovery scenarios. I would hope you could find the answer in one of
those.

That was what we originally though too, but our local IBM support person
told us we couldn't. Thinking further about configuration activities to
migrate to mixed CTN mode, I'm not seeing how on the non STP capable
processor we're going to be able to set the name of the mixed CTN, since
it isn't going to have the STP tab for that CEC,
