I also found this; seems very good to me:

Yes, the problem *only* occurs ...
... with z/OS V2R1,
... with PDSEs,
... in case at least one empty member exists in the source PDSE of
the copy operation (IEBCOPY), irrespective of how the empty member
was created.
We do have SMSPDSE and SMSPDSE1 set up and running.
"guaranteed synchronous write" was not the culprit.
Thanks.

Have you tried with - directly after each IEBGENER step - do an
IEBGENER from the member to SYSOUT ?
Yes. Makes no difference. Same problem
Have you tried with only non-empty members?
Yes. No empty members - no problem.
Have tried with DD * instead of DD DATA ?
Yes. Makes no difference. Same problem.
Have you tried with something other than NULLFILE for empty members?
(E g an IEBCOPY from a third dataset with empty members.)
Yes. Makes no difference. Same problem.
that is:
the problem is not limited to IEBGENER ...
if you build the empty member with other tools, the problem remains?
So this is a PDSE problem ... from your posts I'm almost sure that
you don't have this problem with normal PDSs.
PDSEs are supported by a special address space, AFAIK. Is there a
possibility to have site-specific exits installed in the PDSE
supporting subsystem; do you have any?
Thanks.
