So you are probably looking at something like a CHANGEMAN or ENDEVOR
product.  Those are for Source code changes, but I am guessing this is what
you are looking for in general.

If the files are source, then look at CA PDSMAN.  You can have PDSMAN
monitor PDS datasets for source code changes and keep a before and after
copy of the data.

Otherwise, I am not aware of anything for SEQ, VSAM or other than PDS/PDSE
files;  this may be a roll your own process.

I have seen shops where DB2 functions would manually track changes, but they
wrote that code themselves.
