Creating a new CDS Security Architecture

Use the New System Wizard to create a new CDS Security Architecture in a project. To activate the New System Wizard, right click on an open CDS Framework project and select New -> System

The New System Wizard requests the following information:
  • The Project selected from the drop-down menu chooses the project into which the system will be added. All of the currently opened CDS Framework projects are listed.
  • The System Name is a unique name for the system. No two systems in a project can share the same name.
  • The Reference Policy Directory is the directory from where the base SELinux Reference Policy will be copied into the new system.

The default location for the SELinux Reference Policy Directory is specified on the project properties page and was set during project creation. The default for the project is based on the project that was selected when the new system wizard is selected.

The structure of the project files are discussed in the Advanced Information section.
