My guess would be that XMIT is trying to allocate a temporary dataset, and
if your SMS rules don't point temp datasets to an SMS pool, then it is
trying to find a disk volume mounted as STORAGE or PUBLIC.  Check to see if
there has been a change to your SMS config that might have affected temp
dataset allocation.
