Refreshing the Server Configuration The Central Administration server does not automatically detect configuration changes made directly to the EMS server. That is, if changes have been made to the server configuration using the Administration Tool, API calls, or by directly editing the configuration file, the Central Administration server must be instructed to retrieve these changes from the server. You can instruct the Central Administration server to connect to the EMS server and retrieve its current configuration. This configuration replaces the JSON configuration file stored for the server in the working directory. To obtain the current configuration settings from a running EMS server: 1. If the server is locked, discard any changes and stop editing. If you own the lock, click the Revert icon to discard your changes and stop editing. If another user has the lock, you may wish to break the lock. See Break the Lock for details. 2. On the Server List page, locate the server in the list of managed servers. 3. Click the Refresh icon. 4. In the dialog box that opens, click Yes to update the configuration from the EMS server, or No to cancel. To ensure that Central Administration has the latest EMS server configuration settings, always refresh before editing a server.
