Issue/Introduction
Running a job with XCOM 12.0 to transfer an entire PDSE program object file to another LPAR, where the receiving file is also a PDSE but empty. Received IEC036I 002-CC in receiving LPAR for empty PDSE. PROGLIB=YES is used, and XCOMPRNT DD is present.
Environment
XCOM r12.0
Cause
The IEC036I message is coming from IEBCOPY, which is used by XCOM to perform PDS/E transfers.
Based on that, we need to validate that both sides are the types of PDSE that are expected.
From what we can tell the target PDSE has a flag set in its directory that it has program objects, meaning it's a loadlib. If the PDSE is really empty, that means that it wasn't empty at one time. Once a PDSE loadlib bit gets set, by an IBM utility, it cannot be reset.
My suggestion is to try the transfer again with a newly created PDSE on the target side.

Resolution
Deleting and allocating a new PDSE on the target system resolved the problem.
