I believe you are talking about Hiperbatch, which copies a sequential dataset to memory to be read in parallel by several users. Not for PDS or PDSE.
It was a very nice feature and provided an incredible boost in performance, but it worked only in a single z/OS (Monoplex). No support for Parallel Sysplex.

But I remember a Data in Virtual process back in the 1990s. You defined a dataset or datasets via an exit. The Data in Virtual STC would watch for a reader of the dataset and read the data set into storage and retain it there for multiple readers. Once all readers disconnected from the dataset, it was taken out of storage. At least that is my memory of the process. "Confidentially doc, I am the wabbit."
