es, as I indicate in my first message, I had already discovered that.

Yes, as shown above I do much the same thing, considering that
SYSCONF.JOBS.SYSLOCAL already exists.  However, this does not explain 
why, when I run the script, that I see this error:

Can someone explain to me what is causing these errors.  I have named the
template processing command file sysconfb but have not modified any of its
contents.
