Issue/Introduction

After upgrading Agent MVS from V21 to V24.4.x (Java-based) the ZOS Jobs do not have their headers anymore in the 21-24th line but way up in lines 3-9
This causes jobs to fail since they expect their header in specific lines and will get wrong information because they seek for line numbers.
The issue occurs if the option "JCL including OS390 Jobcard" is selected.
