When the CI line command is entered against a regular file, the
Replace z/OS® UNIX File panel is displayed.

This panel allows you to copy into a regular file data from another z/OS UNIX file,
a sequential data set, or a member of a partitioned data set.
Note: - When copying from a sequential data set or member of a partitioned
data set, ISPF invokes the z/OS UNIX OPUT command to perform the
copy operation.
- this operation will cause existing data in the regular file to
be overwritten.
The panel displays the path name of the file into which the data
will be copied. These mandatory input fields are displayed on this
panel:
- Name
- The source of the data to be copied into the file. Any of these
can be specified:
- The path name of a z/OS UNIX file
- The name of a sequential data set
- The names of an existing partitioned data set and member
These optional input fields are available on this panel:
- Binary copy
- When this option is selected it indicates the data
set/member being copied contains binary data. This causes the copy
to take place without any consideration for newline characters or
the special characteristics of DBCS data. If this option is not selected
the data set/member is assumed to contain TEXT data.
Note: This option
is ignored when copying to another z/OS UNIX file.
- Convert
- This option specifies whether data conversion is required during
the copy operation. Typically, conversion is only required when the
data contains square brackets. If no value is entered in the Conversion
Table field, the data being copied is converted using the default
conversion table (BPXFX000) in the standard library concatenation.
By default, this would cause a conversion between code pages IBM-037
and IBM-1047. Otherwise the value in the Conversion Table field identifies
a conversion table to be used for the copy operation.
Note: This
option is ignored when copying to another z/OS UNIX file.
- Conversion Table
- These
types of values can be specified in this field:
- data_set_name(member_name)
The partitioned data set and member containing the character conversion
table.
- data_set_name
The partitioned data
set that has the member BPXFX000 containing the character conversion
table.
- (member_name)
The member containing
the character conversion table. It is assumed to be in a data set
in the standard library concatenation. (The default data set is SYS1.LINKLIB.)
Note: This
field is ignored if the Convert option is not selected or if copying
from another z/OS UNIX file.
For further information on the
character conversion table refer to the description of the OPUT command
in the z/OS UNIX System Services Command Reference.
