It is astonishing how many words this group needs to reply: "No".

First one mentioning FTP! ;-) 

And JES2 can't certainly find out from WHERE your JCL is coming from. As Shmuel 
said, JES2 is NOT reading the member, it is the SUBMITTER who reads in the 
SOURCE of the JCL, not JES2.

You setup JES2 own INTRDR and the submitter selects the right INTRDR for 
submitting JCL using the original sources of JCL.

zSecure can escape that burden. I had to shorten my lines if I want to 
re-submit a failed job it from SDSF...
zSecure uses its own version of SUBMIT instead of TSO submit.

That is just one example overcoming of that limit. There are many other 
examples.

Some [commercial] schedulers do that. So you can always know from WHERE that 
job was coming from.

Indeed. With RACF class STARTED, you can also stop any unknown procs from 
running at all in the first place.

To the OP: the answer is simple: There is NO method in JES2 to discover the 
source of the JCL.
