<div><p>You can use the copy function to move data between device files,
|
|
between database files (including distributed <span class="keyword">DB2<sup>®</sup> Multisystem</span> files),
|
|
or between device and database files.</p>
|
|
<p>Unlike traditional copy utilities, the <span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> copy
|
|
function is field-level sensitive. Therefore, if you use the copy function,
|
|
you can rearrange, enlarge, or drop any of the fields. The server also provides
|
|
a way to define database files. Specific copy commands simplify dealing with
|
|
tape and diskette units, database source files, and open query files.</p>
|
|
<p>See the <a href="../rbam6/rbam6clmain.htm">CL</a> topic for the specific parameters supported by each
|
|
copy command.</p>

You can copy from a physical or logical database file, open query file, diskette file, tape file, or inline data file. The to-file can be a physical database file, diskette file, tape file, program-described printer file, or *PRINT.</li>
