A Refresh button is available to obtain current Rack View information. Click Refresh to force the

the rendered components. The Refresh button can be used to make another attempt to obtain the
proper rack view data. Rack View functionality requires version 2.06 or later of the Server Blade
and Power Management Module firmware to display correctly.
