Audit season

I've (hopefully) just completed the requirements for SOX. Because the auditors don't have a lot of OpenVMS experience, they have no canned test scripts for us to run. This time around, I spent considerable phone time with them to define exactly what they wanted to see for each test.

Once I had the requirements down, I wrote DCL and some C programs to script the tests. Hopefully next time they ask for the results to test number such-and-such, I can just press the appropriate button.
