I agree with others that you may not be able to have your z/OS V1.11 system
in this plex with z/OS V2.1.

In the text of the APAR on IBM.COM it states

PTF List:
  Release 750   : UA68052 available 13/03/12 (     )
  Release 760   : UA68053 available 13/03/12 (     )
  Release 770   : UA68054 available 13/03/13 (F303 )
  Release 780   : UA68055 available 13/03/13 (F303 )


I think when there is nothing behind the parentheses - there are NO PTFS for
z/OS V1.11 (UA68053) and z/OS V1.10 (UA68052).  From what I have reviewed
they were both cancelled.

  Starting in z/OS V2R1, JES2 will only be supported if it is the   level
that was shipped with the active MVS.  If JES2 and MVS are not at the
appropriate z/OS level a "$HASP2101 JES2 level (HJExxxx) IS NOT SUPPORTED
RUNNING ON mvs_level" message will be issued at initialization to indicate
the mismatch, and a   "$HASP2102 REPLY "CONTINUE" TO INITIALIZE JES2 IN THIS
UNSUPPORTED ENVIRONMENT, "TERM" TO SHUT DOWN JES2" message will be issued to
accept an operator reply.  The operator will need to reply "TERM" to
terminate JES2 initialization.  The operator will need to reply "CONTINUE"
to allow the JES2 initialization   to complete.  Initializing in this
environment may cause errors in applications that use JES2 services.
  Starting in z/OS V2R1, JES2 supports a new data structure in a JES2
checkpoint, a JOE index, which is used to optimize SYSOUT work selection.
When a pre-z/OS V2R1 member joins the MAS, the JOE index is suspended. This
does not have a functional impact. However, z/OS V2R1 members in the MAS
will not benefit from the performance improvement of the JOE index until all
pre-z/OS V2R1 members in the MAS are upgraded to V2R1 (or leave the MAS) and
the JOE index is rebuilt.

>From Marna Walle' Presentations -

z/OS V1R13 is the last release to support a staged migration for JES2 and
JES3. As of z/OS V2R1, you must migrate to all elements of z/OS at the same
time, including JES2, JES3, or both.

As of z/OS V1R2, compliance to the coexistence, fallback, and migration
policy for JES2 and JES3 is enforced. A migration to a JES2 or JES3 release
level that is not supported by the policy results in the following:
. For JES2: If the JES2 release level for a system that is initializing is
not compatible with the other active
systems in the JES2 MAS, message HASP710 is issued and the JES2 address
space for the initializing
system is terminated.

JES2: Verify z11 checkpoint level JES2_Z11_UPGRADE_CK_JES2 (no APAR) ACTIVE
LOW For z/OS R11 and Beyond

Use the $D ACTIVATE command. This command indicates if activation to z11
level will succeed.

z/OS V1R11 25 September 2009 Occurred 30 September 2012 *
*See "z/OS V1.11 Lifecycle Extended Service" below for a fee-based
accommodation, through 30 September 2014.

.If you are running z/OS R11 and would like coexistence support, plan for a
migration to z/OS R13.

Thus, z/OS V2R1 is coexistence, fallback, and migration supported with the
following two z/OS releases:
V1R13 and V1R12. This means that:
. Coexistence of a V2R1 system with a V1R13 or V1R12 system is supported.
. Fallback from V2R1 to V1R13 or V1R12 is supported.
. Migration to V2R1 from V1R13 or V1R12 is supported.
