John, I ran a test allocating a VSAM dsn without the DATACLAS parm. Yes, the DATACLASS is correctly assigned. I spoke to our software group and they will need to add the alias to PRO-SMS which would span both VSAM and NON-VSAM dsns on multiple volumes should there be a space constraint on the initial volume.

Do you get the correct dataclass on the vsam dataset when you omit dataclass(xxxxx) from the define statements? If not, I would recheck the data class acs routines to make sure you are finding these datasets and setting the data class.
