Server

This object type, together with object type Node, is used to document remote procedure calls.

An object of type Server documents all programs available on a logical server.

In the predefined Predict metastructure, an interface can have passive and active associations of the following types:

Valid passive association: "Contained in NO" (default passive association)
Valid active association: "Uses PR"
