why not simply go to ISPF option 3.4 and use as pattern
Code:

SYS8.CICS.*.SDFHAUTH


but it would be wiser to define better the requirement

SYS8.CICS.**.SDFHAUTH only excute the current lpar list(dataset)
Build list using the reflist option (new list created)

anyway read the ISPF tutorials on how


Code:
 Tutorial ------------------ Managing personal lists ----------------- Tutorial
 Option ===>

    Creating, changing, and deleting personal lists is done through a set of
    panels which are accessible via the 'Reflist' pulldown available on many
    ISPF screens. These panels are also available by using the REFACTD,
    REFACTL, REFOPEND, and REFOPENL system commands.

    The following topics are presented in sequence, or may be selected by
    number.

      1  Creating new personal lists
      2  Modifying existing lists
      3  Deleting lists
      4  Miscellaneous notes about managing personal lists

I suspect you may be the only one who knows this? Why do you believe this? We regularly retrieve a list of several hundred or thousand masked dataset names.

It is becoming less and less clear exactly what you want and where you are stuck . . .

We are all confusing the DSLIST command with the similarly named option 3.4, the DSLIST utility.

When you use the DSLIST command of ISPF, you see panel ISRPDSLB, "Personal Data Set Lists for Append". You can select a pre-defined list as a filter.

With the DSLIST command, you select a 'personal data set list'. Your list can have 30 filters which can have wildcard characters. Because of the wildcard, any item in your filter list could resolve to many actual datasets.

It is not clear how you distinguish LPAR datasets, but perhaps you can utilize the VOLUME field (which also accepts wildcards).

You can display your datasets by explicitly naming the first 30 in your personal list. Then you can issue the APPEND command and select a different personal list to get 30 more datasets. Repeat until you have the entire list that you want.

The APPEND command will add more datasets to the existing list.

30 datasets? Sounds like the TS is using the ISPF Workplace rather than DSLIST service.

Actually, I mentioned different two ways:
1. using wildcards
2. use APPEND command to add to the list

Which did you try? And as Bill asked: show us the details of what you tried.
