Just learned something about TSO batch. Coding the RECEIVE command all on
one line as
//SYSTSIN DD *
RECEIVE INFILE(SYS2) DSNAME('APF1.V100.ISPPLIB.TEST') OLD
will make it fail. Splitting it across 2 lines as
//SYSTSIN DD *
RECEIVE INFILE(SYS2)
DSNAME('APF1.V100.ISPPLIB.TEST') OLD
/*
will make it work. Evidently going back to the SYSTSIN dd for the next
part of the command is the same as getting input from the prompt in
foreground. This is probably something very obvious to everyone else who
works with MVS, except me.
Thanks for the help.

The way I have done it:
//SYSTSIN DD *
RECEIVE INDATASET('input data set')
DSN('output data set') UNIT(SYSALLDA) VOL(vvvvvv)
END
