RE: CRTDUPOBJ on LF - how does it do this?

I have always had problems with CRTDUPOBJ when copying logicals from one
library to another.  I always use SAVOBJ and RSTOBJ.  Invariably with
only the target library in my library list and the physical in both
source and target when I do a CRTDUPOBJ the logical always points back
to the PF in source library.

subject: CRTDUPOBJ on LF - how does it do this?

I was amazed when shown today that by simply doing: CRTDUPOBJ on an LF
to
the library I happen to copy my physical to, that it works.
How can this be? I would have bet that a restore was required, isn't
this
the way it used to be?

Is there anything wrong/different with creating a logical this way
rather
than creating it the old fashion way with CRTLF?

And finally, has this been available since day 1 on the AS/400, S/38??

Maybe the S/36 skewed my thinking on this.
I am trying to come to grips with all the man-hours I have on logicals
over
the years.
