Perhaps because you're using OVRDBF instead of OVRPRTF?

My test code is as follows:
PGM
CRTPF FILE(QTEMP/TESTOVR) RCDLEN(132)
OVRDBF FILE(QSYSPRT) TOFILE(QTEMP/TESTOVR)
WRKJOBSCDE OUTPUT(*PRINT)
ENDPGM

However, the job fails with:
CPF9850 - Override of printer file QSYSPRT not allowed.

Any ideas why this simple override is not working?

Okay, I substituted OVRDBF with OVRPRTF. The results are the same.
The job fails with a message "Override of printer file QSYSPRT not allowed."

It appears the system does not allow any overrides on system-defined print files? I swear I have done this before, somewhere (been quite a few years, though), and have seen examples of doing this via google searches as a solution to some issues (spooled output from runsqlstm).
