I imagine allocation routines haven't been changed to cope for this special case (HFS' are just PS datasets that are used by a different access method). Possibly you can add your volumes to a SMS storage group, activate your SCDS and convert the volumes? If you have the authority...

But it did not . Looks like the HFS code is setup to fail the mount of non-sms multivolume dataset whereas system still allows the allocation of the dataset .Is there a specific reason for this ?
