specifies the name that you want to change. The name that you
specify can be the name of an existing data set or the name of an
existing member of a partitioned data set.
new_name
specifies the new name to be assigned to the existing data set
or member. If you are renaming or assigning an alias to a member,
you can supply only the member name and omit all other levels of qualification.
ALIAS
specifies the member name supplied for new_name operand
is to become an alias for the member identified by the old_name operand.
You
can rename several data sets by substituting an asterisk for a qualifier
in the old_name and new_name operands.
The system changes all data set names that match the old name except
for the qualifier corresponding to the asterisk's position.
Note: Do
not use the RENAME command to create an alias for a linkage editor
created load module.
