Program Information Checklists

To complete the checklists in this chapter, you use options from the Program Information Menu. You access this menu by selecting option 5 from the Primary Menu.

The audit tests described in these checklists analyze programs that z/OS processes. The checklists do the following:

Program Origin Display

Review the program modules that z/OS libraries contain.

Program Statistics

Analyze the contents of program libraries and the change control procedures in effect for those libraries.

Program Compare

Review exit load modules and production source modules and verify the SMF records that journal changes to these modules.

Program History

Review the execution history of programs to ensure that data center policy is followed in the processing of key programs.

Program Freezer

Detect and review changes to source and load modules and libraries of exit programs and SVCs.

Program Correlate

Identify the source modules associated with load modules and any load modules that do not have corresponding source modules.

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.
