Starting in SBM 11.2, users can set a refresh interval for dashboard widgets in Work Center. This means that users can set a time period (from 2 to 60 minutes) for individual widgets on a dashboard to automatically refresh and display updated data. Widgets that have a refresh interval applied display an orange refresh icon at the top of the widget.
Yes SBM maintains a counter in the database and on the cache refresh interval (configured in the System Administrator) each of the web servers checks with the DB to see if it needs to refresh .
- log on to an SBM 11.3 WorkCenter UI - on a dashboard edit one of the widgets (pencil in the top right) and the a refresh interval of 2 minutes - now close the browser
