The ability to use DFU on a source file was dropped a few release ago on the AS/400.
Here is the message I get with V4R3M0 with the command.
upddta wolf/qddssrc
File QDDSSRC in WOLF is not a data file.
Before I got PDM or DBU on the production machine I had to move the file to a Development machine with it on it change it there and send it back. I learned this when I tried to change FTP statement on a source file on a machine with out PDM-SEU

Well, DDS support is there, even if you have to use DBU/DFU to key the specs.
I'm pretty sure that RUNSQLSTM is available as well. There is a problem
with the DBA as usually defined in an AS/400 environment, though. Most
AS/400 shops don't know what a DBA is supposed to do, and often hire people
for the job that are equally clueless.
