1. You don't install service on the target while it is in use.
2. You mount any *FS file at the appropriate mount point in the
/service directory. See the Unix System Services Planning Guide
for recommended naming conventions.

I can believe that.
If you set up a good naming[1] convention and take advantage of
indirect caloging, static system symbols and extended indirect
cataloging, then you should be able to easilly handle multiple sets of
target volumes and switch production among them. There's some guidance
in the CPAC documentation.
[1] Not just data set, but also volume.
