Yes, the GENERATE command will generate jobs to construct target libraries from the content in the distribution libraries. However, APPLY REDO later for more than a handful of PTFs might be dicey. If you go this route I suggest you first ACCEPT the PTFs that have not been accepted yet, then use GENERATE, and forego APPLY REDO. Note, GENERATE will generate JCL to construct ALL target libraries, not just the zFS... be careful if you don't run the entire generated job stream as you have a great potential to create target libraries containing mismatched service levels.
Depending on the product(s) you might be better off re-installing from scratch... its safer. > Look at the GENERATE command.
