floundering with sftp

Question:

Is LSOUTPUT as a file name reserved ?

Once you crank up FTP, there is the LS cmd and one of its slash-parameters- (DISK - is an option that generates a file of LSOUTPUT.

(DISK Stores the file name list LS subcommand into a file named
*CURLIB/LSOUTPUT.LSOUTPUT, instead of showing the results on
the display. Each time you specify the (DISK parameter with
the same current library, the contents of the
LSOUTPUT.LSOUTPUT file are changed.

If you specify a file name that is not valid, but there is
an existing LSOUTPUT.LSOUTPUT file, that existing file will
be deleted.

Even if not a reserved, it is probably not a good name for an output file, since it kinda goes against a "standard".
