Ah, of course you're right, I'd forgotten that. In ACF2 and Top Secret you can
have UPDATE without READ, for example - it's needed only rarely, but it's
possible with those two - not in RACF.

This all sounds like similar behavior of the option in 3.4 called "Include

Deepest apologies to David Spiegel. And to IBM. I never noticed the ACCESS

Obvious questions would be
1) do you have some kind of filter on screens 2 or 3 of the selection criteria?
2) old CDS name?
3) using a saved list instead of generating a new one for the source?
If none of these things are it, may I suggest showing us your volume selection

I am running ISMF to get a list of volumes (2.1) and many volumes are missing
from the list. I ran thru all of the options and don't see any filters.
What obvious thing am I doing wrong? It worked a few days ago, when I set SMS
as the source of the list. I reset it to physical but still only SMS.
One call to RACF - according to the description for the STATUS=ACCESS
keyword on the RACROUTE REQUEST=AUTH macro in the RACROUTE manual:
ACCESS - The request is simply to return the user's highest current access
to the resource specified. Upon successful completion, the user's access is

Yes. I general there are many choices:
