Victor, A single generic TAPEVOL profile should be enough. This will only protect standard label tape usage. If you are sure that TAPEDSN option is not set on as well as TAPEVOL class, the above should be enough. However, once data set name access authorization is required you cannot control authorization in this way, unless the data set name prefixes used are unique to production.
If you had DFSMSrmm you could use the REJECT OUTPUT(P*) command in test system parmlib to prevent production tape volume use on the test system.... and then use the 'ignore' processing (EXPDT=98000) to authorise read access.
