1) Yes. Datasets are SMS managed. Just reviewed MGMTCLAS,... and as best I can 
determine they should have no impact.
2) Data had been created and migrated to ML1 or ML2 *PRIOR* to the full volumes 
dumps used in the recovery. There should have been no reference to this data.

It took me really some time to chew up your post ;-) - but I have 2 questions 
if you don't mind please.

Are these datasets SMS managed? If so what are their management classes 
regarding the retention limit/#backupversions/ auto or command backup/dump 
allowed/not allowed. Just curious if those management classes may have any 
effect on your backup/recovery attempt.

"*not* on the volume " - source volsers or destination volsers?

I always wanted to ask since my storage management days - *where* is that list 
stored? Only during dump/restore or not? I must certainly missed something..
