If I understand the OP correctly, it was a Etihad operated flight marketed by Jet. So also relevant would be:

Earn AAdvantage miles when you fly on Etihad Airways marketed and operated flights as well as Etihad Airways codeshare flights operated by American Airlines.

This was not Etihad marketed and operated.

But part of this is also that until recently (May 1) Etihad flights from the US to AUH also earned no mileage regardless of who marketed them.

Additionally:

Jet marketed and operated flights with fares in B, H, K, V, O, G, W earn no miles; in N, L, Q, S earn 50%; only Y, M, T, U in economy (or F, A, C, J, I, P, Z) earn 100%. Only Award (redeemable) miles, not Elite Qualifying at that.

But yes, it appears you flew a codeshare - a Jet marketed flight operated by Etihad, which like an Iberia flight operated by SN, earns no miles.

Always check AA miles earning pages before buying if you intend to earn Elite Qualifying or Award miles; start here, and read carefully (read the wikipost at the top of the page).
