2. Create the Migration strategy that will produce the DDL at the Database level.
   
   
3. Analyze the migration strategy in Batch mode and write the JCL to a PDS member.
   
   
4. Edit the JCL to include the GDG dataset:
   
   

   //DDLFILE DD DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),SPACE=(CYL,(5,10),RLSE),//           DCB=(LRECL=080,BLKSIZE=26800,RECFM=FB),//           DSN=gdg dataset name(+1)     <======== replace with GDG name

5. Submit the strategy,
