| the servers. The <strong>Status</strong> column indicates whether or not a server has |
| been started. The following lists the possible server status:</p> |
| <ul><li id="rwrcview_wst__rwrcview_ul2li1"><a name="rwrcview_wst__rwrcview_ul2li1"><!-- --></a>Starting</li> |

| after restarting a workbench session, the status of a server might be missing. |
| To update the status of the server, right-click on the server in the Servers |
| view and select <span class="uicontrol">Refresh Status</span> from the pop-up menu.</div> |
| <p id="rwrcview_wst__rwrcview_p4"><a name="rwrcview_wst__rwrcview_p4"><!-- --></a>The Servers view also displays the current state of all the |
| servers. Depending on the status of the server and the preference options |
| that are selected for that particular server, the workbench determines the |
| server actions that may be taken. Use the <strong>State</strong> column as an indicator |
| for possible actions that you may want to take. For example, if the workbench |
| detects that a file defined to run on a particular server has |
| changed, and the <span class="uicontrol">Automatically restart servers when necessary</span> check |
| box has been selected on the Server preferences page ( <span class="uicontrol">Window > |
| Preferences > Server</span>), the server tools automatically restart |
| that server. The <span class="uicontrol">Status</span> column in the Servers view |
| changes from <var class="varname">Started</var> to <var class="varname">Stopped</var> to |
| <var class="varname">Started</var>. However, if this check box is not selected, the |
| <span class="uicontrol">State</span> column in the Servers view changes to <var class="varname">Republish</var>.</p> |
