     * @param array $inp_params associative array defining input parameters for micro services used in this rule. only string and keyval pair are supported at this time. If the array value is a string, then type is string, if the array value is an RODSKeyValPair object, it will be treated a keyval pair
     * @param array $out_params an array of names (strings)
     * @param array $remotesvr if this rule need to run at remote server, this associative array should have the following keys:
     *    - 'host' remote host name or address
     *    - 'port' remote port
     *    - 'zone' remote zone
     *    if any of the value is empty, this option will be ignored.
     * @param RODSKeyValPair $options an RODSKeyValPair specifying additional options, purpose of this is unknown at the developement time. Leave it alone if you are as clueless as me...
