Re: F9 to retrieve commands

[Evan Harris <spanner@xxxxxxxxxx>]

most likely you will find that this user has a different job description
that specifies a different logging level. The logging level determines
whether you can retrieve previous commands. Set it to a higher level - I
would suggest a value but am not at a machine right now - best that you
prompt the command and read the help text. Remember to check/alter the job
description if necessary.

You could also check to see whether logging is being changed via a CHGJOB
in the initial program
