You might want:

    oshell cp -p /service1/ABC* /service2/testdir/

... the "-p" to preserve permissions and timestamps.

What are the respective advantages of OSHELL and BPXBATCH?

I believe SYSPROC, SYSOUT, SYSPRINT, and SYSIN are superfluous.
I submitted an RCF to IBM on a similar matter (at least the last two
for FTP, IIRC), and they agreed they should be deleted from future
editions of the manual.
