Error description

• GDPS must recognize the Version 2 indication in message IEE254I
  response to D IPLINFO.  Without this, clients may observe
  unwarranted GEO055W SDF alerts on GDPS systems running z/OS 2.1
  even though the system was IPLed correctly, because GDPS doesn't
  recognize z/OS version 2.
  
  Additional symptoms:
  Reallocate Test and Reallocate Report options missing from
  Sysplex Resource Management panel (VPCPSPM5) and web GUI
  frame when running on a z/OS version 2 system.
