Resolution

FCO114I PDSMAN DETECTED A SYNTAX OR VALIDATION ERROR followed by IEB113I and IEB119I messages.

These are IEBCOPY messages - not FastCopy messages. PDSMAN detected the error.

We we passed the control stream to IEBCOPY and it gets the same error.

IEBCOPY syntax is defined in the DFSMS Utilities manual - the INDD statement begins a new copy step.

To begin a new copy  step and OUTDD must be defined. 

The OUTDD must precede the INDD.

//SYSIN    DD  *                                 
    COPY  OUTDD=OUT1                             
                INDD=IN1
