I am running batch SDSF for the first time, using PGM=IFSAFD so I can
enter both line commands and also be able to fill in the XD output
screen fields.  OS level is z/OS 1.8.

Here is the input to IFSAFD:

//GETSDSF  EXEC PGM=ISFAFD,PARM='++0043,133'
//ISFOUT   DD  SYSOUT=*                     
//ISFIN    DD  *                            
SET CURSOR OFF                              
H                                           
FILTER JNUM EQ 2197                         
//*

But the FILTER command results in a display on ISFOUT of ALL of the jobs
in the Hold screen, NOT just the selected job number.  The same command
entered on the SDSF screen in TSO results in just the one job being
displayed, the one with that job number.

"FILTER JOBID EQ JOB02197" gives the same results online (works) and in
batch (doesn't work).  Same results also for "SELECT jobnameX JOB02127".
Same results using 5-digit number with leading zeroes for JNUM
selection.

Am I doing something wrong here or should I be asking my sysprogs to
check IBMLINK for APAR's?  Or did I miss something important in the SDSF
manual?

This is a problem because I may have many jobs with the same name
(format: TSO userid + 1 char) in the Hold queue and I want to select
just a specific one, since IFSAFD only operates on the job/dsid at the
top line of the screen.
