The 29-year-old Briton, who had a first-round bye, won 6-4 6-3.
Murray was not at his best early on but broke world number 104 Copil at 5-4 to take the first set and pounced again at 3-2 in the second.

Stefano Pioli, 51 was appointed last November, signing a contract until the end of June 2018.
With three matches to go, Inter Milan are sitting on the seventh position in Serie A, three points adrift of AC Milan and the final qualifying spot for the Europa League, and are winless in seven league game streak
Youth team coach Stefano Vecchi will take charge of the first team for the remainder of the season games.
Pioli was Inter’s ninth manager since Jose Mourinho left in 2010.
A club statement read: “Inter thanks Stefano and his team for the dedication and hard work carried out at the club over the last six months in what has proven to be a difficult season.
“The club will begin planning now for the next season.”
Football’s world governing body has written to the Premier League club “to seek clarification on the deal”.
It is believed to concern who was involved in the £89.3m transfer, and how much money was paid to them.
A United spokesman said: “We do not comment on individual contracts. Fifa have had the documents since the transfer was concluded in August.”
Paul Pogba returned to the club last summer for a world-record fee of 105m euros after leaving in 2012 due to ‘lack of respect’
United also agreed to pay Juventus 5m euros (£4.5m) in performance-related bonuses, and other costs, including 5m euros if Pogba signs a new contract.
When they confirmed the transfer, Juventus said the “economic effect” to their club was “about 72.6m euros”.
Alves got Juve going with 33 minutes in, finding Mario Mandzukic at the back post for the opener.

Then, just before half time, he scored this ferocious volley after the goalkeeper left his line, to make it 2-0 at the break.
AS Monaco got one back from Kylian Mbappe in the 69th minute, which was Juve’s first goal conceded in the competition since the group stage, but the highest goal scoring team in Europe couldn’t produce any more.
Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid will be Juve’s opponent in the final, with the two playing their second leg on Wednesday. Real leads 3-0 after the first leg thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo’s hat trick.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino has decried the “idiots” who directed monkey chants at Sulley Muntari and offered to speak to the Ghanaian soccer player who was initially banned for protesting against racism.
Muntari said he was treated like a “criminal” after being shown two yellow cards when he walked off the field during a Serie A game in response to the racial abuse.
The Pescara midfielder was infuriated after unsuccessfully trying to get the referee to halt the April 30 game at Cagliari.
Muntari eventually persuaded the Italian federation to overturn the one-game ban, but Infantino is perturbed that the referee did not follow FIFA protocols. The world soccer leader issued a public reminder of the correct response to player complaints.
“The three step process (is) stop the game, make an announcement, stop the game a while, get the players out,” Infantino said on Tuesday. “Unfortunately idiots (are to blame). There are always idiots everywhere but we have to fight them … continue to fight.
“It’s good to bring these things out when they happen. We have to work.”
Muntari questioned FIFA’s commitment to tackling racism, concerns Infantino wants to hear directly.
“Of course I will speak to (Carlo) Tavecchio,” Infantino said, referring to the Italian federation president who was banned for racism himself in 2014.
“I will speak to Muntari as well … we will work together.”
