Pete,

According to the IMS Manuals, DFSMRCL0 is no longer needed from IMS V9 and
above.

One  of his comments was an IMS V8 system may be running.  Therefore, he may
still need to include the DFSMRCL0 usermod, even though that version of IMS
is no longer supported as of 2008; along with the other versions he
mentioned  (V9 and V10).

So, if that is true, it is likely that he will need to install the IMS
DFSMRCL0 into that LPAR for support of IMS V8 only.

When running with IMS V8 under z/OS V2.1 with the DFSMRCL0 module - it may
be problematic to get support on some issues.

I would think that he needs to update his IMS versions or run the risk of
problems with z/OS V2.1 that will be difficult to resolve.

As we all know, things will run unsupported until they break.  And when they
break it will be too late to do a gentle upgrade.
