In my opinion: No. I don't see *any* need to clone a logr CDS *ever*, much less the individual data sets. This would open the door to all sorts of problems. Please describe what you mean by 'clone'. To me, 'cloning' means setting up a new system that has never been IPL'd before. Once you have cloned a system, that system starts from scratch, with fresh data sets, newly allocated after IPL/start of logr/start of application using the log stream. There is no need to copy over another systems CDS, no matter what type. Part of the cloning process must be making sure that you use the correct sysplex definitions. A new system should always start from scratch with regard to the sysplex defs, indicating a complete cold start. The other definition of 'cloning' that I know is restricted to the rollout of a new system residence set, in which case there is no need *at all* to copy couple ds or logr data sets, as they should have been established before.
