I'm guessing your right that IEF653I is still in JESMSGLG and probably won't be
displayed in TYPERUN=SCAN. Since the IEF653I comes out at interpreter phase,
chances are the interpreter only interprets a step just before it runs.
This also means the instorage JCL will have only been converted and awaiting
interpreter. If Dave needs the converted JCL in addition to the variables, then
he can grab it from storage without all the JESJCL funk otherwise just forget
my previous suggestion.
Thanks.

Alas, in MVS they chose to show it as a message in a separate JES dataset. Have
they moved IEF653I to be inline since then?

I've found SCAN to be almost worthless. It doesn't always report invalid data
set names.

Is there a JES data set accessible by SDSF that shows symbols resolved?
what does it show if symbol resolution extends a line beyond column 71?
In fact, any continuation that splits a data set name can be "a little funky
to process."
