The rule is affected on another server which is running on 2012 R2.
Cause
I compared setting on normal and problematic server. Then I found FILE class is disabled at the problematic server.
When I check behavior with tracer's log, PROGRAM class check is triggered by FILE access.
It is not caused by difference between OS and PIM/PAMSC version.
