And more.  In the job:

(The "submit" is my ftp script.)

STEP1 fails with an I/O error; STEP2 succeeds with &X substituted,
and STEP3, also with no error, catalogues SYSUT2 as:

   Organization  . . . : PS             Current Utilization
   Record format . . . : V               Used blocks . . . . : 2
   Record length . . . : 222             Used extents  . . . : 1
   Block size  . . . . : 226                                                    
   1st extent blocks . : 132 

There's got to be cause for an SR in here somewhere.
