RLIST for specific profile '*'

The RLIST command treats the asterisk as a wildcard. If a profile is named '*' then the command will list all profiles not just that one.

Please enhance the RLIST command to allow the list of one specific profile especially a profile named '*'

    This item is a valid requirement but unlikely to be given high enough priority to be placed into the product plan. If this requirement is high value, please re-open it, or open a new requirement.

    Using '**' as a profile is a work around solution. Since '*' is a valid profile name therefore RACF should allow for the list of this one specific profile.

    Thank you for submitting this requirement. It is recognized as an Uncommitted Candidate. We suggest defining these profiles with the name '**' rather than '*' as that allows them to be listed with the RLIST command. See the RACF Security Administrator's Guide > Chapter 1. Introduction > RACF group and user structure > Protecting resources (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.5.0?topic=structure-protecting-resources)
