Jake, The problem was your SMS ACS routine. It assumed that all temporary data sets must be SMS managed on DASD. You should really be checking to see if the requested device is a tape, and/or, that program is IEHINITT or EDGINERS etc., and allow the requested device to be allocated.
If you use rmm EDGINERS it supports use of dynamic allocation based on the volsers to be labelled and that allows SMS to decide if tape is sms managed or not and whether a sms managed tape or non-sms tape drive is needed. See the rmm I&C write-up for EDGINERS. Using IEHINITT you are on your own as regards device selection/allocation.
