Are you sure that it's the same input? The last I looked, the asterisk was only valid under a COPYGROUP.

We recently uploaded the latest version of Tapetools. That was a success, but when we ran our version of $$CPYLIB which is shown below we had issues. //COPY EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=* //PDSIBM DD DSN=&TOOLHLQ..IBMTOOLS.JCL,DISP=SHR //PDSOUT DD DSN=&USERHLQ..&SITE..&PRIMARY..JCL,DISP=SHR //SYSIN DD DUMMY //* // PEND *** END OF COPY PROC *** //* //STEP EXEC COPYLIB //COPY.SYSIN DD * COPY OUTDD=PDSOUT,INDD=PDSIBM EXCLUDE MEMBER=(STATSORT,EXPIRE,$$CPYLIB,$$TAILOR,$READ*,FTPTOOL*) IEBCOPY no longer seems to work with the $READ*, and FTPTOOL* we removed those and it was fine. Does anybody know if there where changes to IEBCOPY that may prevent this, as it worked fine in 2022? We are hoping to complete work on tape tools this week for all our systems, and realize that we may have to copy the $READ*, and FTPTOOL* over to our own library and delete afterwards but before $$TAILOR, but would like to avoid if possible as we are training some new people to take this over.
