The LIST subcommand

The LIST subcommand displays a hexadecimal dump of all or part of the RACF® block. It allows you to see exactly what is inside the block and where it is located.

Syntax of the LIST Subcommand of READ

   LIST [NEW|OLD]
        RANGE(xxx,yyy)
        ALL

where:

NEW

Specifies the copy of the original block (it might or might not have been updated). NEW is valid only with the READ UPDATE function.

OLD

Specifies the original block that was copied into storage when you entered the READ command. OLD is the default.

RANGE

Defines the parts of the block to be listed.

xxx specifies the offset into the block where the listing is to start. The default is 0.
yyy specifies the number of bytes to be listed. The default is 16.

The values for xxx and yyy can be hexadecimal or decimal numbers. If the sum of xxx and yyy exceeds 4096, the dump ends at the end of the block.

ALL

specifies a hexadecimal listing of the entire RACF block.
