Preferences settings

Use the Preferences page to specify whether you want the administrative console workspace to refresh automatically after changes, the default scope to be the administrative console node, confirmation dialogs to display, and the workspace banner and descriptions to display.

To view this administrative console page, click Preferences on the console taskbar.

Enable WorkSpace Auto-Refresh
Specifies whether you want the administrative console workspace to redraw automatically after the administrative configuration changes.

The default is for the workspace to redraw automatically. If you direct the console to create a new instance of, for example, an application server, the Application Servers page refreshes automatically and shows the new server's name in the collection of servers.

Specifying that the workspace not redraw automatically means that you must re-access a page by clicking on the console navigation tree or links on collection pages to see changes made to the administrative configuration.
