A few ideas ...

PERHAPS you can ...
1. Restore A to C
2. Put C on top of the library list, remove A from the library list
3. CRTDUPOBJ of the logicals from B to C
--> This should force the access path to the files in C
4. Move the logical files from C to D

OR, you could ...

1. copy the LFs from B into A
2. copy A to C (or save/restore)
3. delete the LF's from A
4. move the LF's from C to D


OR

1. copy A to C, copy B to D
2. RMVM the members from the LFs in D
3. ADDLFM the members to the LFs in D.

2 & 3 can be done in a CL, spinning through the outfile from
DSPFD FILE(B/*ALL) TYPE(*MBR) OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) OUTFILE(D/FOO)
and issuing the RMVM and ADDLFM commands

Good luck!
