Conditional Definition Mode

When working in Conditional Definition mode (Fixed vs. Conditional Definition Mode), the security module first determines the definition mode to be used. To determine the mode, the security module issues an authority check for access to the entity $$IOAEDM.qname (or $$CTxEDM.qname) in the FACILITY class. If the user is authorized for the given entity, the security module operates in Extended Definition mode. Otherwise, the security module operates in Basic Definition mode.

During the installation process, a security module can be customized to operate in a single mode (meaning, either Extended Definition mode or Basic Definition mode). For more information, see Implementing IOA Security.
