If the storage group is not backed up, how did HSM ever back up a copy for you 
to recover from?  Was there a copy of the dataset on disk when you recovered it 
from HSM?  What was the command you used to perform the recovery?  When you 
browse the PDS, does the member list display correctly?  What are the DCB 
attributes of the PDS?  Do they match what you think they should be?  What is 
the exact error message?
