Answer / sumit
Everyone is saying we cannot update pf using Cl...But please
try once using RUNSQLSTM before marking 'NO' to any answers.
As we can update a PF using CL.
RUNSQLSTM uses source file where source member is present.
And this source member contain UPDATE SQL, OR DELETE SQL, OR
INSERT SQL.
RUNSQLSTM SRCFILE(LIB/QSRCPF)SRCMBR(SQLPGM)COMMIT(*NONE)
Once this statement run in CL then PF will get updated,
deleted or inserted with the new record.

Answer / anupam
Use of RUNSQLSTM helps in updating the physical file within
a CL program.
Syntax:
RUNSQLSTM SRCFILE(LIB/QSRCPF)SRCMBR(SQLPGM)COMMIT(*NONE)
SQLPGM should contain
UPDATE PF set DATA='Value' where DATA'='Value1' and it will
update the PF
