Hello Gadi, You can use some of the server pack procedures:
1. find tour taget libraries volume (Why do you need your Dlib at all?) 2. Define the new Master catalog. 3. Copy with DFDSS physical copy with "NEWNAME" preficixng any HLQ to the datasets. 4. Run the catalog job from the Serverpack with the appropriate changes. 4. change to final names and create aliases, pathes. 5. No need to init IPLTEST, just "O7" (load).

I would like to create new target and dlib zones and have them point to the test systems volumes. Does anyone have a procedure for cloning a system?
