The solution allowing to define the default parameters of allocation of the files is "closed" and foresees only address some use cases.
These use cases do not necessarily make sense for a site.
Describe the solution you'd like
The solution for defining default file allocation parameters should be "open", which means that the site is free to define its file allocation models, to meet its requirements.
In the settings, instead of defining objects "Zowe-Default-Datasets-Binary", "Zowe-Default-Datasets-C", "Zowe-Default-Datasets-Classic", "Zowe-Default-Datasets-PDS", "Zowe-Default-Datasets-PS", which are "closed" declarations with imposed names, it would rather be necessary to declare an array of allocation models, and the user (the site) would be free to define the different models of his choice, with the names of his choice.
