Here is a solution:
/* rexx */
'alloc f(jcl) ds(jcl.cntl) shr reuse'
address ispexec
'lminit dataid(jcl) ddname(jcl)'
'edit dataid('jcl') member($job)'
'edit dataid('jcl') member($jc)'
'lmfree dataid('jcl')'
Also if renaming is the approach why not just make a copy of the
member to edit and then copy it back.
