The CPYSRCF command has a Source Change Date (SRCCHGDATE) parameter
which may make that command preferable over CPYF [for the ability to ask
for the preferred outcome to maintain that value]:

I forgot to mention the "To member identifier" (TOMBRID) parameter which has the [probably somewhat undesirable for this scenario] default of *GEN versus *FROMMBR when using that CL command for _copy_ method versus using save\restore to move the data [members] from the PF38-SRC to the newly created PF-SRC.

_i Copy Source File (CPYSRCF) i_
"...
To member identifier (TOMBRID)

Specifies, for new members added to the to-file, whether the member level identifier will be generated or copied from the member level identifier of the member in the from-file.

*GEN
The member level identifier of the new member in the to-file will be generated.

*FROMMBR
The member level identifier of the new member in the to-file will be the same as the member being copied.
..."

I suppose that is not extremely important because restores from old backups to effect source recovery would still require use of the ALWOBJDIF(*FILELVL) to get past the new File Level Identifier. However any other interface that might also refer back to a stored copy of that Mbr LvlId value would not infer change when there was effectively no change.
