Program Correlation

Even with efficient change control standards, old load modules are not always deleted from the system. Also, after a period of time, the location of vital source programs can be forgotten. CA Auditor can help you identify load modules that do not have a corresponding source program. In this way, you can identify critical source programs that should be located.

The Program Correlation option compares a load module library to a source code library. If a load module library member does not have a corresponding member in the source code library, CA Auditor displays the missing source code member. To use the Program Correlation option, load module libraries must be partitioned data sets (PDSs) or partitioned data sets extended (PDSEs). Source code libraries can be PDSs, PDSEs, CAI.CAILIB libraries, CA Panvalet libraries, or CA Librarian libraries.

The correct operation of this function depends on the existence of a standard that each CSECT exists in its own source member. If there is more than one source or loadlib involved, some interpretation of the output might be required.

To match a load module with its source

1. From the Primary menu select option 5.

   The Program Information menu is displayed.

2. Select option 6.

   The Program Correlation screen is displayed.

3. Enter the name of a program source library and its corresponding load library name.

   The Program Correlation screen lists programs for which there is a load module but no corresponding source program.
