  ****************************************************************
  In GDPS GM with topology setting GM2SITE, a variable set by
  Monitor3 is used to determine if the configuration is
  recoverable or not. Monitor3 is run asynchronously from the Kr
  system config process. In large configurations the variable
  might be set later than the check for recoverable configuration.
  When that occurs, a GEO3200E SECONDARY VOLUMES CAN NOT BE
  RECOVERED SDF alert is incorrectly issued.
  

Problem conclusion

• This PTF fixes the reported problem. GDPS is changed to set the
  variable indicating if the config is recoverable or not during
  the Kr system config process instead of Monitor3.
  

Temporary fix
