What is your default SDSF "PREFIX" value?  Does Lionel's script change that 
value?

Maybe set PREFIX * before the ST request?

Lionel and I have been communicating about his very nice SDSFXDD, because it
wasn't working for me.

For me it only finds jobs whose jobname starts with your userid. If I have
jobs in O queue:
NP   JOBNAME  JobID    Owner    Prty C Forms    Dest                 Tot-Rec
     PHS1     JOB04436 PHS       144 A STD      LOCAL                      7
     PHS1     JOB04436 PHS       144 A STD      LOCAL                  1,094
     VSH1     JOB04440 PHS       144 A STD      LOCAL                      7
     VSH1     JOB04440 PHS       144 A STD      LOCAL                  1,094

and I create a trivial test program:
/* REXX */                                                   
trace r                                                      
  arg j                                                      
  rc=isfcalls('ON')                                          
  address SDSF "ISFEXEC ST" j                                
  say 'RC from ISFEXEC ST' j 'was' rc';' jname.0 'jobs found'

Run against VSH1 it finds nothing; against PHS1 it works (finds the job).
Meanwhile, if I do ST VSH1 in SDSF, I see:
NP   JOBNAME  JobID    Owner    Prty Queue      C   Pos
     VSH1     JOB09766 RAW         1 PRINT      A    58
     VSH1     JOB09767 RAW         1 PRINT      A    59
     VSH1     JOB09768 RAW         1 PRINT      A    60
     VSH1     JOB09769 RAW         1 PRINT      A    61
     VSH1     JOB09781 RAW         1 PRINT      A    62
     VSH1     JOB09782 RAW         1 PRINT      A    63
     VSH1     JOB04440 PHS         1 PRINT      A   101

It isn't getting confused by those other jobs, because if I run XYZZY and
then try my trivial test (or SDSFXDD) against that, I get nothing as well. I
did think I had seen something at one point that said "Jobnames starting
with PHS" but now I can't find wherever that was.

Anyone know what's going on here? Our system is very vanilla, no fancy
exits/program products beyond RACF involved here.
