Is ListAvailable an executable? If not, bash will not try to expand it
as the first word.

Check your bash completion settings (info bash). If you do say:

# ls > List<Tab>

does it work? Completion is "smart" i.e. the action can depend on the
specific command. Try:

# yum <Tab>

and see what happens. It should list all of yums options.
