APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Currently there is no way how to disable RefreshInterval in the
plugin-cfg.xml file completely.  There are some situations where
our customers would like to disable this directive so that
always the old plugin-cfg.xml file that was loaded at IHS
start-up will be used, no matter if the plugin-cfg.xml was
canged or not.
.
As I stated before, currently we do not have any PMR for this
issue but some IBM cstomers stated that they would like to have
ability.
.
This change needs to be done in these plugin releases:
a) WebSphere 4.0
b) WebSphere 5.0
c) WebSphere 5.1
d) WebSphere 6.0
Local fix
N/A, maybe to set RefreshInterval to a very large value, but
also I do not know what is the current maximum value for
RefreshInterval.
Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server users.      *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Reloading of the plugin-cfg.xml         *
*                      cannot be disabled.                     *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
There are some instances where a customer wishes to not have
the plugin reload the plugin-cfg.xml after the webserver
has been started.  Currently there is no way to disable the
reloading of the plugin-cfg.xml file.
Problem conclusion
Updated plugin to allow for disabling the the reloading of
the plugin-cfg.xml file.  Setting RefreshInterval to -1
disables the reloading of the plugin-cfg.xml file by the
plugin.  If changes are made to the plugin-cfg.xml after
the refresh is disabled the user **MUST** restart the
webserver for those changes to be picked up by the plugin.
