Ensure the REST OLDR functions provide proper audit trail to Prime Cras for any changes to a program loadset's status or composition.

Two critical and standard practices used in zTPF systems are the restriction of certain system alteration entries and functions to a CRAS terminal, and the journaling of the resulting alterations themselves to the Prime CRAS system console. The Pr...
