Is there a way to restore individual members into an
existing source PF?

When I tried it with

RSTOBJ OBJ(FOO) SAVLIB(FROBOZZ)DEV(*SAVF)
SAVF(BASESOURCE) FILEMBR((FOO (BAR)))
MBROPT(*ALL) ALWOBJDIF(*ALL) RSTLIB(FLATHEAD)

it threw a CPI320A exception, and I ended up with the
existing FLATHEAD/FOO renamed to FLATHEAD/FOO0001,
and a new FLATHEAD/FOO created, containing only BAR.

To be clear, CPI320A is informational only. It indicates the original data is being protected, because the existing\old file on disk, is not the /identical/ copy of that named file on the media.

Given the formats are the same, ALWOBJDIF(*FILELVL) will suffice. Also to match the expectation that FROBOZZ in FLATHEAD already exists, the OPTION(*OLD) should really be added to the RSTOBJ request. The ALWOBJDIF(*ALL) is best _always avoided_ when restoring any database files; i.e. list every available [non single-value] special value separately on the ALWOBJDIF() parameter if desired, but avoid almost always the use of the single value *ALL.
