You could break up a large Stg group into 2 components, assign a.b.** to one of the components, assign a.c.** to the other and concatenate the 2 components for the rest of your allocations. or as Mark suggests let the apps people play storage administrator, something that historically speaking, they are not very good at.

Applications want 3 datasets A.B.** to always be allocated on different packs than 3 datasets A.C.** These are small files, and I hate to waste an entire volume to create another STG GROUP... just to isolate them...
