It would be nice if IBM could add that support to HSM now instead of
waiting for the zOS release that removes support.

Murphy says that once we clean up all DASD datasets with these
attributes someone will recall datasets with the attributes right before
we go into production with the new operating system level.

QUERY - It is my impression that if I try to allocate a dataset with any of these options, the resulting dataset will get allocated as if they had not been requested (and the Catalog Record will no longer show these options for that dataset [ie: It will reflect the actual allocation status not the requested, but ignored, options]). Thus you can no longer define (the options are just ignored) nor allocate datasets with these options. Does the "the zOS release that removes support" refer to a situation where legacy datasets that were allocated with these options will no longer be usable?
