It's still relevant if you're not using SMS.

Subject: Re: Antiquarian Curiosity: Pre-MVS/XA Mount Command for DASD Volumes

Seems that the VATLSTxx parmlib member is still relevant.

From the z/OS 2.5 MVS Initialization and Tuning Reference:

The VATLSTxx member contains an optional VATDEF statement followed by entries 
that define the mount
and use attributes of DASD volumes.
Use the VATDEF statement in VATLSTxx to specify a default use attribute. If you 
do not specify VATDEF,
the system assigns a default of PUBLIC to those volumes that are not 
specifically assigned a use attribute
in the VATLSTxx member or in a MOUNT command.
