With a STC your msgclass is defined in JES. Depending on your z/OS level you can start your STC as follows
S LOGWDSJ,MSGCLASS=?? Change ?? to the class that allows the Output to be held on JES or at least not printed/purged. Then you can see what is going on. When you use SYSOUT=* in an STC it defaults the class to what is defined in JES for Started Tasks. You can say SYSOUT=X (for example) if X is your Held class in your STC JCL to hard code the correct class. You need to review the JES2 USERs guide to understand how the different elements of JCL are coded. An STC gets its JCL typically from a JES PROCLIB. The Security (USER) is handled through your Security product. You can see what user is assigned when the task is started. Look in SYSLOG. Syslog should also show you any security messages for your STC. See if you are getting any when the GDG allocation occurs. A JCL gets its security from the submitting user's security. You need to work with your security group to make sure the STC has the appropriate security for running in your environment. In RACF this is the STARTED Table (IIRC). If you are not the sys prog, you will need to contact them to determine correct SYSOUT Class to use for your process.
