This behaviour

What behavior? The bevior Paul described, or the behavior in your
example? They're not the same.

When the SYSIN DD statement is a DD DUMMY, points to an empty file,
or is omitted, IEBCOPY will generate a COPY statement that allows
you to run IEBCOPY without supplying a control statement data set
for SYSIN.

Paul had a SYSIN and it was neither empty nor a DUMMY.

Not sure what category a 'bad' file fits into, but I would guess 
it's essentially 'omitted'. 

That would be broken behavior.

Re: IEBCOPY with I/O error on SYSIN

2012-02-17 Thread J R
I would have thought that the effect of a dummy, empty or omitted SYSIN 
is perfectly well known.  Moreover, its shortcut functionality is not limited 
to compress operations.  

More to the point, a malfunctioning SYSIN dataset is none of the above 
and it makes no sense to interpret it as such.

 This behaviour gives a simple, and little known/used, method of running a 
 compress without control cards.
 
 1. Allocate SYSUT1 to your PDS
 2. SYSUT2 DSN=*.SYSUT1
 3. Omit SYSIN
 
 Runs a compress of SYSUT1

 Paul,
 IEBCOPY is documented (and functions) as generating a SYSIN if none exists, 
 if it's dummied, or if it's an empty file. Not sure what category a 'bad' 
 file fits into, but I would guess it's essentially 'omitted'. 
 
 If you feel strongly about it you could open a Share requirement. 
 
 
 From DFP Utilities: 
 
 When the SYSIN DD statement is a DD DUMMY, points to an empty file, or is 
 omitted, IEBCOPY will generate a COPY statement that allows you to run 
 IEBCOPY without supplying a control statement data set for SYSIN.
