Configuring conditions

This section includes examples of how to configure condition attribute customizations.

Note: Typical scripts are short and do not add any noticeable load on servers and clients, but project administrators must verify the performance level of scripts. Scripts run in a sandbox in the Eclipse client and server, but in the web client, scripts can potentially call any existing web service of a Jazz® Team Server a user has connected to. Project administrators must verify that scripts can be configured and attached to the process specification.

To configure condition customizations, you must create a script that checks the value of an attribute to determine whether a condition is true. To use scripts to customize attributes, you must set the Enable Process Attachment Scripts property on the server Advanced Properties page. You must be a member of the JazzAdmins repository group to modify server properties.
