There have been quite a few helpful suggestions in response to the quest of
a "utility." I wish to suggest a simpler and cheaper method. Simply
IEBCOPY the PDS or PDSE to a GDG dataset of nnn depth on a daily (or more
often) basis. We've been doing this for years to protect a departmental
based PDS. On rare occasions we've had to go back and retrieve a member.
Hey, the price is right.
P.S. Years ago I had PDSMAN and I miss it.

My firm (Software Engineering of America) offers a product called FMO (Fast
Member Organizer) that will do this for you.

I don't know anything about SCLM other than its main function. I wasn't
even
sure what exactly the OP wanted. By "archive" I thought they wanted
something to get rid of inactive members, not keep multiple versions.
There is also ChangeAction software.
