On two different RACF plexes, we have these two profiles in the SDSF class:

ISFCMD.ODSP.* (G)
ISFCMD.ODSP.** (G)

I'm confounded to explain the difference between one or two asterisks. Help?

(I know this should go to the RACF List, but that does not work in my office.)

This is tricky.
First, it is not DATASET class, so EGN vs NOEGN considerations are not applicable here. It always *kind of* EGN.

.* means "one or more characters". For DATASET it means one qualifier, but it is NOT the case.
.** means "anything, including more qualifiers, including empty string".

Example names covered by ISFCMD.ODSP.* :
ISFCMD.ODSP.A
ISFCMD.ODSP.ANY
ISFCMD.ODSP.ANYTHING
ISFCMD.ODSP.A1234567890AAA      - more than 8 characters in "qualifier"
ISFCMD.ODSP.ANYTHING.YOU.CAN.IMAGINE - dots are part of the name, not qualifier separators.

Note, the following is NOT covered
ISFCMD.ODSP

and this is the difference. ISFCMD.ODSP.** covers ISFCMD.ODSP as well.



Of course, when you have both profiles, that means ISFCMD.ODSP.* and ISFCMD.ODSP.** the first is "less generic" so all the names listed above will be covered by ISFCMD.ODSP.*, with the exception for ISFCMD.ODSP


Thing get more tricky when resource name are multi-qualifier and you use profiles like
SOME.CONST.*
SOME.CONST.*.*.*.*
SOME.CONST.**
SOME.CONST.*.FIX.*.N1

Hint: it's good to know what resource names are possible in the class.


For your case I would delete one profile and stay with another one.
