RE: Create duplicate object

[Wynn Osborne <wynn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Excellent---that's the way we do it. Additionally, add these:

CPYF ... NBRRCDS(1)
MONMSG CPFXXXX  ---attempt to copy empty PF message
CLRPFM   PF   --- clear the record you just copied


We have done this for many years, and we selected this method over the
CRTDUPOBJ command due to locking issues. CPYF does not exclusively lock the
PF as CRTDUPOBJ does.
