Parameters

input-file-spec

   Specifies the names of one or more files whose specifications are
   to be changed.

   You can use wildcard characters in the file name and file type
   specification; if you do, all files that satisfy the specified
   fields are renamed.


output-file-spec

   Provides the new file specification to be applied to the input
   file. The RENAME command uses the file name and file type of the
   input file specification to provide defaults for nonspecified
   fields in the output file.

   You can specify an asterisk (*)  in place of the file name
   or file type of the output file; the RENAME command uses the
   corresponding field in the input file specification to name the
   output file. Specifying wildcard characters in corresponding
   fields of the input and output file specifications results in
   multiple rename operations.

   You can omit the device name from the output specification.
   EXCHANGE uses the device name specified for the input, since
   it is not possible to rename a file from one device to another.
