Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Member, Tom Pullum:

Here is a link to a file that gives the stratum ID for all surveys: HERE. In the recent surveys (the past 10+ years) stratum is correctly given by v022 or v023 (and they are the same) but in some of the older surveys v022 and v023 are mislabelled. In most surveys, the strata are combinations of v024 and v025 (region x residence), whether or not that matches with v022 and v023.

The weight variable for DV is d005, as you say, but if it is missing you have to fall back on v005. The PSU or cluster is v001 or v021--they are the same.

For pweights, as in the svyset command, it is not necessary to divide d005 (or v005, etc.) by 1000000. You can do it, but Stata automatically normalizes pweights to have a mean of 1.
