48.8. Refreshing the Package List
If packages are installed or removed from a managed system by some method other than this module, its lists of packages will no longer be correct. This is fine as long as the lists are refreshed afterwards. To refresh a package list, follow these steps:
1. | Click on the Refresh package lists button on the main page. |
2. | A page showing the results from each managed system will be displayed, listing any new packages found or old ones that no longer exist, or an error message will show if a system cannot be contacted for some reason. As with installs and deletions, the refresh will be done in parallel to speed up the process if you have a large number of managed servers. |
