Getting a 3029 when trying to open() an IFS file that was close() just a second before...

I'm working on something right now where I need to convert a file from
UTF-16 Little Endian to UTF-16 Big Endian... the file needs to retain
its name and have its CCSID as 1200. So here is what I'm doing...



1) Append a random number to the front of the filename (to retain
uniqueness if multiple processes happening at one time) and do an IFS
rename (via Qp01RenameKeep)

2) Create the file via open()

3) If it was successful I do a callp close(fd)

4) Then I open the renamed file as read only - this works fine
everytime.

5) Then I try to open the just created file and I am getting an
error of 3029 Resource Busy.



I don't know why the resource would still be busy, I closed the file
descriptor. And it stays busy, even if I let the program hit an error
and it finished with *inlr=*on. I used iNav to check it and it still
shows busy. It even showed busy after I ended the 5250 session, which
killed the job... Any thoughts as to what else could be keeping it busy?
