Having recently used a dataset mover we had a few tasks crash, so it was
not transparent. Which caused an unscheduled outage.

Not true. zDMF moves allocated/in use datasets transparently, just like
TDMF moves entire volumes with datasets allocated on it transparently.

I had considered that, but there are tons of data sets on these volumes,

The volumes aren't SMS-managed, so I can't use the pool method that
