Multi-member files are unique to the Iseries to my knowledge.


They are similar to a Partitioned Data Set (PDS) on MVS.


After a brief exposure to data sets, I thought it would be nice to have
MBROPT() or MBR() *GENERATE as new member option on data file commands
like CPYF or where ever a member name could be specified as a target for
data (ie. FTP and PC file transfer)

While we can in some situations accomplish this with a little CL (add a
new member with a unique name), it could simply some tasks like data
uploads to i5/OS.
