To verify which product security model (development, production, or pas) the instance is running:
  1. Run the Proenv utility.
  2. Perform one of the following tasks:
    • Get the environment details by running the pasman env command on the instance. For example:
      pasman env -I instance-name

      The security model is listed as one of the last properties in the output.

    • To list only the security model of the instance, run the following command: 
      pasman config -I instance-name psc.as.security.model

      The security model property is displayed.

You cannot change a development security model to a production model, but you can create a new instance with the -Z prod switch that is described in the Use PASMAN to create an instance topic.

Note: Never use a PAS for OpenEdge instance created in development mode in a production environment. Use only PAS for OpenEdge instance created in production mode for deployment in public facing production environment.

OpenEdge 12.2 and later offer a third security model, which is a subset of the production security model, that can be specified at instance creation using the -Z pas switch. For more information, see Security configurations.
