Re: Need to move all objects from lib A to lib B in batch mode with a replace option if the object already exists

[Nathan Andelin <nandelin@xxxxxxxxx>]

One problem you might encounter when moving physical and logical files
(particularly if you use SQL views) is getting the logical files properly
synced with the physicals in the right library.

One technique I've been pleased with is the following. But it only works if
B is intended to be a mirror of A:

DLTLIB B
SAVLIB A
RNMOBJ OBJ(A) OBJTYPE(*LIB) NEWOBJ(B)
RSTLIB A
