True thing! If SMPE is pointing to some directory that's not the "hot" one (under /Service, usually), then no SMPE update would be required. Simply mounting the "new" filesystem under the correct directory would work. If SMPE is pointing to the "hot" path (which is weird), then it would require either the SMPE DDDEF update or a JCL DD override to the SMPE setup.
Anyway, it's a good idea to have a convention to easily identify the Maintenance filesystem and the Production one - could be a simple char in datasets names or something else...
