I was talking about normal users that normally allocate a dataset and
normally try to read it. With SMS-datasets they will encounter an empty
file, with non-SMS they will read what is stil on the tracks from the
previous dataset.

From the z/OS V1.11 Preview,

"In z/OS V1.11, DFSMSdfpâ„¢ processing is planned to be changed to indicate end-of-file (EOF) during the allocation of data sets on DASD that are not SMS-managed and have either sequential or an undefined data set organization."
