If you check file 452 at cbttape.org you'll find my IEFUJV that allows
updates the " SET " JCL statement with variables, including all the symbols
available via "D SYMBOLS".
If you need any more symbols, just ask.

However, you CAN use System Symbols in Started Task JCL, so if you can
convert it to run as an STC....
Or convert it to run as skeleton JCL...

Perhaps an INCLUDE member with SET statements could get you static system
symbols into the JCL. I toyed with the idea of creating a Rexx task that
executed at IPL time that would write the current system's symbols into a
member (with SET statements) in a system specific PROCLIB. I never did
automate such a process, but I did have a member with 'hard-coded'
variables
in it:
(INCLUDED member contents)
//SYSNAME SET SYSNAME=SYSA
//SYSHLQ SET SYSHLQ=SYSP
etc...
