Correct. I never got a good explanation for this; we had to create a
new profile just to own objects because the group profile was already
the PGP for millions of IFS objects. The other option is to do a CHGPGP
NEWPGP(*NONE) before you do the CHGOWN.

Deep in the dark depths of my feeble mind I recall running into this.
You're not trying to make the owner the same profile as the Primary
group are you?

Actually, that's a distinct possibility.

According to the information I just received ... the existing file's
primary group is QPGMR, and the CHGOWN command appears to be changing
the owner to QPGMR.

I'm gathering that this is not allowed for some reason?
