In all the years since this post, has anyone come up with a new, good, foolproof way to have one LPAR in a JES2 SYSPLEX only run SYSPROG jobs during a test window?

This is easy in JES3 since job class groups -- no JES2 equivalent -- may be individually activated or inactivated at a system level.

In our shop, we have groups called BATCH, PRODWORK, SOFTWARE, ONLINE, and SYSPROG.

To stop all jobs from being scheduled in all groups on all systems in the JESplex, we issue (in a script):
*F,G,ALL,G,BATCH,OFF
*F,G,ALL,G,PRODWORK,OFF
*F,G,ALL,G,SOFTWARE,OFF
*F,G,ALL,G,ONLINE,OFF
*F,G,ALL,G,SYSPROG,OFF

Then, we can selectively activate any group on any system we want. For example, to allow only sysprog jobs to run on MVS70, we would issue:
*F,G,MVS70,G,SYSPROG,ON
