If the database is accessed via the web / z/OS Unix, the date accessed
filed is NOT updated.  We don't migrate for this reason.  We had DB2
storage groups fill up, having problems, no one would authorize more
space, so I manually migrated datasets not accessed in 1 year.  The
users then had to get the dabases recalled before their applications
would work.

The issueing TSO id would only be tied up if you issued a migrate with
the wait option, default is nowait and you get control back
immediately.
