DSN=&&OBJ is only resolved by the JCL reader/converter/interpreter into a temporary DSN name like SYSYYDDD.THHMMSS.RA000.JOBNAMEX.R0NNNNNN. SVC99 won't do that for you.
When you allocate it yourself you have to supply a real name or don't provide a name at all, but I don't know if SVC99 allows that, check the docs for SVC99 for the DSNAME unit.
