For Skippy the Ancient, Are you saying that you started a Started Task and cannot see any output in SDSF? You can see the job start and end on the console, true? If it's the output you are wondering about then you have the output for your started tasks going to a class that gets purged right away. There was a discussion about this a while back ... sorry I don't have the dates when this discussion happened.

As an automation guy, I've encountered support folks changing PGM=<legit thing> to PGM=IEFBR14 to keep <legit thing> from executing while maintenance is being done, or when they're drafting the change task to retire it. And who do you think the Operations staff calls when they can't get the task to keep running? Three guesses...
