The status check starts when the view is opened. To force an additional check, choose Refresh from the Views toolbar. The status check can be cancelled in the dialog that appears or within the Eclipse progress view. When the check is complete or if it cancelled, the following symbols indicate the status of the corresponding item. The table will be reloaded every time a status check is started to make sure all stored RPC environments are available.
