I don't know about LMCOPY, but my experience with TRANSMIT is similar. Running a batch IKJEFT01 with a SYSPRINT DD in the JCL allocated to SYSOUT=* and executing multiple TRANSMIT commands in SYSTSIN you still get SYS00003, SYS00004, etc., outputs in the batch job, one for each TRANSMIT execution, each with the IEBCOPY "SYSPRINT" output from the PDS copy operation, and NO output to the allocated SYSPRINT DD at all.. I suspect in the case of TRANSMIT that the TRANSMIT code (not IEBCOPY) is unconditionally dynamically allocating SYSnnnnn to SYSOUT and then passing the generated DD name to IEBCOPY in the callable PARM list.

And that this file was automatically allocated when your Batch JOB ran. (You did not pre-allocate before running the JOB). I want to try to use my own dataset name for this. Something like: CAMERON.SPFLOG1.LIST With DISP=MOD. But I do not understand how I can introduce this file so that when LMCOPY invokes IEBCOPY, IEBCOPY will write its log data there. I am running the REXX JOB in Batch (like you). I have tried assigning my own dataset names for SYSOUT, SYSPRINT and SYSTSPRT. But none catch any of the IEBCOPY output log data. And the other files are automatically generated for the JOB, every time I issue an LMCOPY command. I will try to find something in the Google Group for ISPF. If I find anything I will share.
