If I remember correctly, a CLRPFM does not throw and error message if
the file being cleared contains no records.

The CPYF with the MBROPT(*REPLACE) option will throw an error if there
are no records to replace (the member is empty).

Agreed, if you are referring to the SOURCE member being empty. As written,
though, I disagree. CPYF MBROPT(*REPLACE) does not report whether a REPLACE
option was necessary/redundant.
