i need to supress errors on a copy command for a bash script.

i saw documentation somewhere that called for this syntax:

Code:

$ cp -E ignore sourcefile /path/to/destination

that doesn't work on the redhat 9 server i'm working on. i did a man cp, and did not find anything.

are there any other known ways to supress errors?
