Hello Brad,
Problem seems to be with the default path for Qshell commands :
/QOpenSys/pkgs/bin/touch: invalid option -- 'C'
'touch' (and also 'cp') command (from /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin) which has been used here is not the one which was supposed to be used (from /usr/bin).
Those commands has not been run from QShell but rather from PASE for i repository.
Those two can't be run interchangeably...both use although similar but a separate sets of utilities and commands.
Most PASE for i directories and files (including shells and utilities) are stored in the /QOpenSys file system.
Changing the order of your PATH environment variable should address this problem...
