Thanks. Possibly useful. Not sure at first glance if too "SDSF-specific" or not.

I would not be writing in Rexx but Rexx serves just fine as a "pseudo-code" 
language.

If Rexx is a suitable alternative, look at Rexx examples in the SDSF manual.
The interface does not require TSO: it's equally usable under Unix System
Services.

The scheme is to drill down through JobID, stepname, procstepname, to
DD name.  SDSF then allocates a generated DD name to that spool file.
An example reads from that to EXECIO DISKR (STEM.  I modified it to
LINKMVS IEBGENER after I overrode SYSUT1 to the name SDSF generated.
