I am just now starting the research on migrating an os/390 machine to z/OS. Currently, it is running on a z/10, and we will use an z/OS that is compatible with the z/10, so a hardware conversion is not an issue.

This OS/390 system has been managed by multiple out-sourcers and bastardized to the point that we would like to consider just installing a new, clean z/OS, then migrating the data to it. This is something I have done many times on z/VSE, but not on z/OS and I know it's not as simple due to the ICF catalogs and such found on z/OS.

Does anybody have a favorite document that describes such a move and the things we need to consider? Pointers to "free" tools would also be helpful as we decide which way to migrate this box.
