Refresh data to avoid the following situations:
OpenEdge Management considers a viewer that has been inactive for more than four hours stale. Once a viewer becomes stale, OpenEdge Management releases ninety-five percent of the memory being held. If you try to use a stale viewer, OpenEdge Management automatically reloads the file. Because additional resource activity might have occurred during the viewer's inactivity, the reloaded log file view might not match the previous log file view of that resource.
OpenEdge Management considers a viewer that has been inactive for forty-eight hours dead. Once a viewer dies, OpenEdge Management releases all of its memory. To return to the log file shown in a dead view, you must renavigate to it, regardless of whether you pinned up the view or saved a link to it before the viewer died.
