I suppose you could write your own 'SUBMIT' command which with outtrap would get the IKJ message, in turn getting the jobname, pass this to a REXX exec calling SDSF and setting isfprefix for the jobname and this would in turn then perform the ST command. However once you've got the job details then what do you want to do. Calling SDSF in REXX (from z/OS 1.9 onwards) is quite particular and it would take quite a bit of coding to do what you want. For example, what do you want to look at in the job? If you want to look at it executing then you need to specify which ddname you want to look at and so on. Have a look at the redbook which gives some good ideas including a 'client/server' option which might be of use:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg247419.html Currently playing with SDSF/Rexx as we want to someway of monitoring logs of started tasks, i.e. SMTP and so on which is quite easy to do under UNIX, etc. but not so easy here.
