Well, the CPY command doesn't list CPFA09E as an escape message it sends

that CPFA09E is sent as a diagnostic.
Minor note... I no longer know how I ran across it, but I can locate
code where I monitored for and caught CPFA09E from CPY at least as
early as 2001/05. I have a delay-loop that checks again after a
time. It only allows a single retry due to the nature of the
process. I would do it differently if I wrote the entire procedure
today; at the time, it was expected to be replaced.
But why would it work in Job A and not Job B...? Interactive vs.
batch? Different users? Created in Job A so it can be caught in Job
A (or the complement)? Windows user vs. i5/OS user (how is the test
file created)? Different file systems? Is the test directory shared
to the Windows Network? Different systems -- different PTFs?
Sorry, don't know, though I see that it has been resolved by the OP.
I guess my only point here is that the docs that list messages that
can be monitored are not always perfect.
