gvrp and trunking between PC 6224s

Hi all.  New to PC switches, so bare with me.  I have 4 6224P switches I'm playing with right now.  They will be put into production in a few weeks so right now, I'm testing and learing on them.  Tring to set them up with one as a core, and the other 3 are edge.  The 3 edge tie back to the core with 10G over fiber.  Right now, I have the core configed with 3 VLANs.  2, 100, and 4093.  "2" will eventually be used for voice, "100" for data, and "4093" for management of the switches and other network devices.  I have the vlans and routing working on the core.  Testing with a couple laptops, and a R510 running ESXi.  iDrac and ESX management interface on one subnet, vlan 4093, and a laptop on vlan 100 with another subnet.  voice is out of the picture right now.  That all works, so I'm not bringing one of the edge 6224p switchs into play.  I've set 1/xg1 to trunk mode and enabled gvrp on it, same on both switches.  From the edge, I can see counts in the grvp stat's and vlan id shows the vlan there and dynamic, although authorization is required.  Not sure what that means, but from that edge, I can't ping the gateway, which is the IP address of vlan 4093 on the core switch.  Am I missing something.  Below is the config from both so you can see what I did.  Also, on the core, I created a 4th vlan 4090 to stick the management interface IP in so I can route the vlan I wish to use for actual management.  Not sure if that's the right way to do it, but I want the switch IPs on the same subnet and vlan as the other network devices for management.  I also gave it a false IP and gateway as 192.168.2.1 is already in use.
