Anybody know the MI equivalent of *START,
as in the ILE RPG statement?:

*START SETLL filename

I've just run into a dead end:

It seems that ILE RPG can take a *START on a SETLL, but doesn't produce an OPM MI instruction stream, and OPM RPG can give me an
OPM MI instruction stream, but can't take a *START on a SETLL (or
a *LOVAL on an RRN-mode SETLL). <<SNIP>>

I would bet that the MI instruction stream is different only for what would become the inputs to the program called to implement the two requests: RRN=1 & RRN=*START. First verify that both result in an invocation of the same DB program; e.g. CALLX QDBGETDR, as shown in a trace. If you can intercept the call to the one OS DB program for both requests, then review\compare the inputs. I would expect that passing the binary inputs matching those used for the request to position to *START would be all that is required.?
