This can't be a physical file, can it, since those can't be written to a CD, AFAIK. I mean, the contents of a CD are mounted under /QOPT, and that is not part of the library-object system.

If it's a PC-type DB file, is it proprietary to a DBMS like MS Access or SQL Server? If it's fixed length or delimited, just use CPYFRMIMPF like any other IFS file, since that's what it is.

Has anyone ever created an application using an OVRTAPF with OPT01? I'd like to be able to read a DB file from OPT01 and was wondering if I need the OVRTAPF. Is such a thing possible?
