Isn't the assigning of a dataclass upon recall dependent on the coding of the 
dataclass acs routine rather than HSM?

When HSM (or equivalent product) recalls a data set, it has to allocate the 
space on the primary DASD. That allocation will need data class attributes.
In my opinion, the HSM manuals are not clear how or where HSM gets the data 
class attributes. I believe you, but it would be nice if the HSM manuals 
clearly stated that the data class attributes of a recalled data set were 
solely obtained from the migrated copy of data set and not from the current SMS 
data class.

>From the z/OS V1R12.0 DFSMShsm Storage Administration manual:
============================================================================
=============================================
Chapter 54. RECALL command: Recalling a specific migrated data set

The RECALL command recalls a migrated data set. If you want, you can specify 
the volume and type of unit where DFSMShsm is to recall the data set.

If you specify the volume and type of unit when recalling an SMS-managed data 
set, the volume and unit type will be passed to the automatic class selection 
(ACS) Routines. ACS ultimately determines to which volume the data set is 
recalled.

The FORCENONSMS parameter allows the ability to force recall of an SMS-managed 
data set to a non-SMS-managed volume. It is not possible to convert a data set 
that is not extended format to a data set that is extended format during a 
recall. However, you can convert an extended format data set to a data set that 
is not extended format during a recall, if you specify the FORCENONSMS optional 
parameter.

It is not matter whether DC is called or not (it's not AFAIK). It's matter that 
even changed DC does not affect existing dataset parameters. 
It will not affect.
Caution: parameters like DVC can be changed dynamically, but actually DVC is 
some "potential bahavior" not "actual shape" of the physical object.

Of course REPRO or EXPORT/IMPORT will change the EA parameter.
