<h1 class="topictitle1">Specify the member name for the copy operation</h1>
<div><p>You can specify various member name for the copy operation.</p>
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />If you specify TOMBR (*FIRST), the copy operation does
not specify a label identifier. Therefore, you must specify a label identifier
(LABEL parameter) on an OVRTAPF command. If you specify the special value
*FIRST, or *TAPF on the copy command, then the copy command uses the label
from the device file description.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />If the from-file is tape, the copy command uses the from-file
label as the label for a tape to-file. If the to-file is a database file,
the command uses the nonblank characters to the extreme right of the from-file
label for the member name of the to-file. The command uses up to a maximum
of either 10 characters or to the period at the extreme right in the from-file
label. The copy operation uses only valid member names for a database to-file.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
<p>If the from-file is a tape file that is not labeled, then a to-file member
or label name is created that corresponds to the data file on the tape from-file
in the form of CPYnnnnn, where nnnnn is the tape sequence number of the data
file.</p>
<div class="p">If you specify a tape in the FROMMBR or TOMBR parameter, it can have a
maximum length of 10 characters. If the label contains special characters
or more than 10 characters, you must specify the label on one of the following
commands: <img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><ul><li>Create Tape File (CRTTAPF)</li>
<li>Change Tape File (CHGTAPF)</li>
<li>Override with Tape File (OVRTAPF)</li>
