We try to use active voice when possible. Is this an action taken by the user? If yes, maybe something like this would be a bit better:

Suggested change
When TDE is enabled, data load using EDB*Loader shall not invoked with `DIRECT=TRUE` option.
When TDE is enabled, don't use the `DIRECT=TRUE` option when loading data with EDB*Loader.
