Job Information Checklists

To complete the checklists in this chapter, you use options from the Job Information Menu. You access this menu by selecting option 4 from the Primary Menu.

The audit tests described in these checklists analyze how JES processes the data center’s jobs. The checklists do the following:

Job Entry Subsystem

Review the parameters that control how JES runs and the commands that TSO users are permitted to use.

Procedure Library Display

Evaluate the integrity of the program libraries that store frequently used JCL.

JCL Library Search

Review partitioned data set (PDS), partitioned data set extended (PDSE), AllFusion CA Librarian, or CA Panvalet libraries that contain JCL.

JCL History Search

Review the job‑related records that are stored in the SMF files or log streams.

Job Entry Subsystem (for JES3 Data Centers)

Review the initialization deck parameters for JES3.

Use the W/P Ref column on these checklists to record a cross‑reference to the work paper that documents your findings about the aspect of z/OS that the checklist analyzes.
