John, As R.S. already has said, Z/OS 1.8 offers some alternatives from the
traditional RACF tape data set protection. That is worth a look for those

If your system supports BLP processing, RACF provides installations with
the ability to control the use of the BLP option on JCL DD statements. To
control who can use BLP, take the following steps:
1. Activate the TAPEVOL class.
