When testing a new level of CMS (or one of its components) then we, 
typically, need to test on one of our production systems for selected 
users only before the full roll-out.

We already have a process to save the  CMS into a specific name and a 
SWAPCMS EXEC that will link in the correct CMS disks and IPL the matching 
level of CMS.

Where we have already hit problems with this is the other saved segments 
(VMLIB etc.).

I was thinking of trying to have them built with a release dependant name 
and then extend the SWAPCMS exec to do the appropriate SEGMENT 
RELEASE/ASSIGN commands. 

The question I have is what is the best way to get the renamed segments 
into place? Is it better to change the build to generate the release 
dependant names or is it better to do this with, say, DCSSBKUP/DCSSRSAV?

Does anyone have a suggested procedure they would like to share with me to 
save me rolling my own?

Thanks in advance. 

With best regards / mit den besten Grüßen,
