DFHSM works with DFSMS but it is not the same thing nor packaged with
it. It is a separately-orderable product (actually called DFSMShsm).
It is the same way with what used to be called DFDSS (now DFSMSdss) and
RMM tape management.
Actually, z/OS includes all the DFSMS components, including DSS, HSM,
RMM, but there is a licensing member somewhere in PARMLIB that must be
updated to enable them, after you pay your fees.
They are not free exactly because of competition, like FDR and CA-1.
Back when IBM first packaged all those components under DFSMS (15 years
ago??), they were going to make them non-optional, so they would be free
or at least bundled into the basic operating system price, but
complaints from ISVs stopped that idea.
