SSM monitors the resource directory table and all tables named in it for changes. If a column has the monitored attribute, then SSM monitors that individual column as well. When a monitored column is changed or a row is added or deleted from a managed table, the RDF stores information about the change and notifies SSM through a global event. As a result of the global event being issued, SSM comes out of its usual wait state and processes the information stored by the RDF. A user-defined action can now run when these events occur.
RDF-triggered events occur after the table has been modified, not synchronously with the change. The corresponding action can react to changes; however, it cannot prevent them.
Note: Auxiliary tables are not considered to be SSM managed tables, and changes to them do not create global events.
