Exits Specified in Parmlib

The CA Auditor System Exit Display identifies z/OS exits, the exits in most IBM program products, and many vendor‑supplied exits.

This table lists the exits specified as parameters in the logical parmlib. Carefully review these exits. Because the names for these exits are site‑specific, CA Auditor cannot identify them. Use this table to find the additional exits that CA Auditor does not report on.
