It got to the point where I had a PDS with all the JCL in as skeletons and you just had to use ISPF change commands and run the job. A clone would take about 4 hours to do and then it would be up and running. There are commercial products out there that do it and it would have been nice to have tried them but money wise it was a no-go, so I started to write my own automated cloning system but gave up when they moved DB2 from the mainframe to Oracle on Windows!
