Use the Console Preferences page to specify how you want features of the administrative console workspace to behave.
To view this administrative console page, click System administration > Console Preferences.
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 name in the collection of servers.
An example follows with workspace automatic refresh
turned on and two users logged in to the console at the same time.
If the first user deletes a mail provider from the collection without
saving his changes, the second user does not see the changes. The
first user must save the changes. Then the second user must refresh
the collection panel on his own console to see the changes. However,
if the automatic refresh is not on, then the second user will not
see the deletion of the mail provider on the collection panel until
after he logs out and logs back in.
