Do you *not* use SMS for temporary data sets in your environment?
I'm confused:

Explanation: The system created a new non-SMS data set on a device for a
DDNAME using
the data class specified.
Source: Storage management subsystem (SMS)
Does this mean we do or do "*not* use SMS"?
What are the advantages either way? Inertia? Should I ask my
sysprog?

Technically, it is STORCLAS that is the defining attribute:
* If a data set has a STORCLAS, it is SMS-managed
* To be SMS-managed a data set has to have a STORCLAS
DATACLAS is optional for SMS-managed data sets, and may be
used by non-SMS-managed data sets
MGMTCLAS is optional for SMS-managed data sets, and may not
be used by non-SMS-managed data sets
