Ah. In the TSO Command Reference you will see:

"If the source and target of the copy request are both data sets, (SYSOUT or
QSAM), you do not have to be logged on under the Session Manager to use the
SMCOPY command."

What's a data set?  What's not a data set?  I believe the obvious
authority should be "Using Data Sets", which avers in an early
section, that a data set can be many things (from memory): DASD,
tape, terminal, card reader, punch, printer, UNIX file, ...

(And, no, I've failed using that citation to IBM support when they
tell me, "No, that needs to be a data set.")

Good question, Paul. I no longer have a system to test on.
How about trying SMCOPY with z/OS UNIX files as input and / or
output and letting us know how it works?

Kind regards,
