The audit tests described in these checklists analyze the way that z/OS processes files. The checklists do the following:
Analyze the integrity of the z/OS system password, detect irregularities in load libraries, and review the accuracy of the VTOCs of data center disk packs.
Review the names and locations on disk of the z/OS libraries, detect any changes in their location or security exposures, and determine the reasons for any changes made.
Analyze the disk packs, verify their VTOCs, and evaluate their use and protection.
Review differences in applications or system data files.
Review the SMF records that journal access, updates, and other operations on z/OS system or production applications data files.
Review the efficiency of the data center’s change‑control practices.
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.
