RDL2 Runtime Environment
The Console Automation Server provides the environment within which RDL2 functions and rules are executed. An Automation Server monitors one or more sessions to produce messages. As each message is produced, a set of rules is run against the message. An RDL2 script is either a rule or a function. A rule is executed when it is assigned to a session and its trigger expression evaluates to true. A function is executed when a rule calls it. Functions can also be executed when it is specified as a startup script for a session, or when a user issues a 'DO' command from the Console Automation Viewer.
