Refreshing a workspace

You can refresh the data that is displayed in the workspace on demand or at a set interval.

About this task

IZSMEĀ® receives monitoring data from monitoring agents whenever you open a workspace that includes query-based views. The default setting for most predefined workspaces is On Demand, which means retrieved data remains static until you refresh manually.

Procedure

To refresh a workspace manually, click the refresh icon refresh. To set a refresh interval, click the menu icon (the three-dot icon at top-right), and select Refresh Every and one of the intervals: 30 seconds; 60 seconds; 5 minutes; 15 minutes; 60 minutes; or On Demand. Note: You can set the refresh interval, but the setting will be active only for the currently opened IZSMEĀ® instance. In addition, be aware that refreshing the workspace creates a certain amount of network traffic. The refresh requests travel to the hub monitoring server and then to the monitoring agent. The information is returned by the same route.

What to do next

Be aware that the more frequent the automatic refresh, the more network traffic you create. These requests travel from the portal client to the portal server and to the hub monitoring server before reaching the monitoring agent. They might also pass through a remote monitoring server to reach the monitoring agent. The information is returned by the same route.
