STATUS=SYSDSN("'"DSN"'")
IF STATUS='DATASET NOT FOUND' THEN SAY 'DATASET NOT FOUND'

It is not what You asked for,
but the ALLOCATE command takes a list of dataset;
| Quote: |
DATASET(dsname | *) | DSNAME(dsname | *)
specifies the name or a list of names of the data sets that are to be allocated. If a list of data set names is entered, ALLOCATE allocates and concatenates non-VSAM data sets. The data set name must include the descriptive (rightmost) qualifier and can contain a member name in parentheses. |
"ALLOCATE FI(ddname) DA(dsn1 dsn2 .... dsnx ) SHR "
if You get an error then You must find out which dataset is not there |
