Refresh the Workbench updates icons and Workbench right pane details columns (that are available for selected nodes) that report the status of a managed entity.
Note: The Workbench status bar reports if the
project is connected to the Change Management server and the Change
Management server name. When you select Refresh the Workbench
determines and then displays the status for the selected
entity.
Example
If you select Computer>Managed Files>Manage>Refresh, the Workbench refreshes the status for the Managed files only. The status for other entities in the Computer project may still be unknown.
Status icons include the following.
