My understanding is you can allow a unit to be coded in UNIT=unit which is not 
defined to HCD but only handled by SMS.

We have some of these.  We had to add them to our Thruput Manager parameters in 
order to avoid an error when it analyzes the jobs.

TM UNIT HANDLE UNIT(PTMP) AS(SYSALLDA)  /* AVOID DTM1107I ERR */          

DTM1107I Ý procname¨ stepname ddnameÝ+ nnn¨ -UNIT FIELD SPECIFIES              
    INCORRECT DEVICE NAME                                                      
                                                                               
    -devnam                                                                    
                                                                               
    Explanation: In aDDstatement, the unit name subparameter devnam  in        
    the UNIT parameter was not defined when the system was generated.          
                                                                               
    This would cause message IEF210I to be issued at execution time.           
                                                                               
    System Action: The job is failed with a JCL error after JCL Analysis       
    is complete.                                                               
                                                                               
    Operator Response: None.                                                   
                                                                               
    Programmer Response: Correct and rerun. Installations using DASD           
    poolers should consider using the TM UNIT initialization statement. See    
    the System Programming Guide: Base Product  for details.

Subject: Re: Esoterics set in SMS we are very quick to make HCD changes.

I believe the esoteric must be defined as it is interegated before the SMS 
routines take control. We have a few Esoterics with only one device in them 
used as a placeholder to keep from having JCL errors in our "legacy" JCL.
We override the UNIT in our SMS routines, but this is takes effect after the 
JCL has already been validated.

We are  99% SMS shop and it would be great to remove all our Esoterics, but 
alas, we have been unable to.
