Select the condition test type.

Operator	Returns True when...
Available	There is a global configuration value with the specified name.
Not Available	Available would return False.
Equal	There is a global configuration value with the specified name, and its value equals the specified value when compared by using the specified comparison mode.

Mode	Description
Case Sensitive	Character-by-character case sensitive comparison.
Case Insensitive	Character-by-character case insensitive comparison.
Regular Expression	The regular expression matches the entire string. It defaults to case insensitive, but can be changed by an escape in the expression. See Sun’s Web site. The pattern options CASE_INSENSITIVE, DOTALL, and UNICODE_CASE are used but can be reversed by using the appropriate embedded escapes.
Source DN	Compares by using semantics appropriate to the DN format for the source data store.
Destination DN	Compares by using semantics appropriate to the DN format for the destination data store.
Numeric	Compares numerically.
Binary	Compares the binary information.
