The RENAME control statement changes the label of a key entry in the CKDS. KGUP does not change any other information in the entry.

The RENAME control statement has this syntax:

RENAME

   LABEL(old-label,new-label)

   TYPE(key-type)

LABEL(old-label,new-label)

This keyword specifies the labels of the CKDS entries that you want KGUP to process. For the general rules about key label conventions and uniqueness, see General Rules for CKDS Records.

First you specify the old label which is the current label in the CKDS that KGUP changes. Then you specify the new label to replace the old label.

TYPE(key-type)

Because you can use the same label in entries with different key types, this keyword specifies the type of key for the old entry and the new entry.
