Similar to Mark Zelden's One Pack solution? ;-D
SMS might be the OP's friend here, as others have suggested.
Indeed. If the OP has a repeat of that bad situation, then SMS will be more
than a friend. I would suggest a specific LPAR with SMS to handle those 70
volsers as SMS. (and DISNEW on all other LPARs SMS)
I would go with DFDSS, SMS and RYO things starting with largest datasets.
But then, I'm not a storage admin these days...

I should have added, given the OP's bias, that SMS management for a
particular volume or volumes is not a "lifetime commitment." But though
I have not pored through it, DFSMSdss might indeed do what he wants as
well without the overhead of setting up and tearing down a storage group...
