varname

Explanation
When RACF® compares
a resource name with a profile name containing RACFVARS, it compares
the resource name with each name in the RACFVARS member list on the
database. The member names are arranged in the order entered by RDEF
and RALT. The oldest member name (the first name in the member list)
is checked first and the last member name is checked last. Each character
of the resource name is compared with each character of the RACFVARS
member name. The search stops at the first match of a sequence of
characters in the resource name and a RACFVARS member name. 
This
method of checking can cause unexpected results, for example, if the
member list contains names that are a subset of other members in the
list. In this case, the resource name does not match the expected
profile name.

System action
Command completes successfully.

User response

change member names, if necessary. 

RACF Security
Administrator Response
Update the member names as appropriate.
See z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide,
for more information about RACFVARS considerations.
To
delete RACFVARS members from an existing member list, use the RALTER
command with the DELMEM operand. To reorder a RACFVARS member list,
delete the variable by using RDELETE, and redefine it. To list a RACFVARS
member list, use the RLIST command. Note: The RLIST command lists
the members of the RACFVARS in alphabetic order, not in the order
entered.  You can also run the IRRDBU00  data base unload utility
and look at the order of the unloaded member data.
