You can use CICS® DA to create a copy of an existing CICS region. CICS DA guides you through the process and automates steps where possible. CICS DA proposes new names for data sets and jobs, but you can change these names. However, you must provide some names, such as the new APPLID & SYSID. Clone can be run on regions that are managed by CICSPlex® SM, or unmanaged regions.
