I don't know of a way to do this "automatically" with an outq config.

Programmatically, you could use the SNDNETSPLF or SNDTCPSPLF to duplicate a spooled file. More typically, these commands would be used to send a spooled file to another computer over a network, but if you send them to the same computer, it'll result in duplicating the spooled file, letting you have the same spooled file in multiple queues.

You could also do this by using CPYSPLF to put a spooled file into a PF, and then CPYF to put it back into the spool as a duplicate. This method is klunky, however, and can lose some of the formatting.

Or, of course, you could write your own tool using APIs (complicated) or buy a tool that uses APIs to do it. If SNDTCPSPLF doesn't work well enough for you, I'd go this route.

I would NOT try to use SAVE(*YES), a delay, and then release it to a second queue. There are sooooooo many things that can go wrong with that solution.
