Yes it did. Acknowledged. That could have saved us some time, but
it is no excuse for the real problem. Now we have to use four steps
instead of two to handle these: copy to a PDS, terse the PDS, unterse
the PDS, copy to a PDSE.
Like I said, one more exception to remember. If PDSE's had ever been
fully implemented -- i.e., supported seamlessly everywhere -- I would
not object to them. But if I had a dollar for every time I have
stubbed my toe on one of the little exceptions, I could buy us all a
nice lunch. I avoid PDSE's like the plague.
My opinion. You're certainly welcome to yours.

Well, in fairness, the cited documentation stated the restriction.

It isn't OUTFILE that's failing. It's a work file named SYS00001,
and there doesn't seem to be any (obvious) way to control the
allocation of workfiles. If you allocate SYS00001, he ignores it and
tries to allocate his own SYS00002 with the same failure. Thus, my
"where is it documented" question.
Oh, heck, why worry about "where is it documented" when you
could better be concerned about how to get support?
