The manual says:

&JOBNAME
The name of the job. Shown in 1-8 characters. In the special case when the job name is *MASTER*, &JOBNAME resolves to #MASTER# to avoid the error of using the asterisk as part of a data set name.
Under z/OS®, it is valid to define a user ID that is all numeric. Under z/OS UNIX, this all-numeric user ID might be propagated as a job name in the case of a fork() or non-local spawn(); this can lead to allocation failures when &JOBNAME is used in substitution for a data set name.
If you specify the &JOBNAME dynamic system symbol in a START command for a started task, the resolved substitution text for &JOBNAME is the name of the job assigned to the address space that calls the symbolic substitution service, not the address space of the started task. |
But when used with regular JCL submit from ISPF, the result is not the name from the JOB statement, but always as if it was set:
| Code: |
| // SET JOBNAME='JES2' |
Any idea? |
