The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

We are on IBM I V7R3.
I am confused about the following:
I run command WRKOBJPDM LIB(library) Obj(name*) to get a list of name*
objects. I execute option 3 with prompt to run CRTDUPOBJ command on a
physical file. The command pops up with parm DATA(*YES). So when I copy
the file, the data comes with it.
I run command WRKOBJ lib/name* to get the same list of files. I execute an
option 3 with prompt to run CRTDUPOBJ command. The command pops up with
parm DATA(*NO). So when I copy the file, the data DOES NOT come with it.
The default on the CRTDUPOBJ command is DATA(*NO).
I cannot figure out where the CRTDUPOBJ from the WRKOBJPDM display is
getting the DATA(*YES).
Can some one point me to where this would override behavior would be
defined?
There are 4 versions of CRTDUPOBJ on the system - but the only one I would
be accessing is in QSYS.
Incidentally, this discrepancy led me to make an EMPTY backup file when I
thought I was making a complete data backup.
Mea culpa for not being diligent.
