If this is the case (like with two datacenters) then chances are they are both get their time source from the same stratum-2-server anyway, so the latency is most likely near zero.
I hope this helps.

Bakunin, I agree with you more that both servers should be sync to a single time server or setup in a way that it's sync to 2 or more servers. But assuming that there is a good reason that it's done this way (and also I would need lots of approval to reconfigure the servers). Would there be any commands/script that I can use to check the time difference between them?

I would also need negative numbers i.e where job1 runs after job2
