This can be done, but is no 'easy' task. I know because I have done it.
Here is a quick outline of my steps.
1) Used XREFPLUS! to expand all Production Jobs. This process brings in all Procs and Control cards.
2) Used a series of Synsort steps to extract the important information from the excessive amount of JCL output created.
3) Used a series of home grown Rexx execs to further refine the data into a format that can be referenced by the end user.
This is 6+ months of work boiled down to three steps.
This process runs in batch twice monthly to keep the data relevant.
