OpenEdge Management considers a viewer that has been inactive for more than four hours "stale." Once a viewer becomes stale, OpenEdge Management releases ninety-five percent of any memory it holds. If you try to use a stale viewer, OpenEdge Management automatically reloads the file. Because additional resource activity might have occurred during the viewer's inactivity, the reloaded log file view might not match the previous log file view of that resource.
OpenEdge Management considers a viewer that has been inactive for forty-eight hours "dead." Once a viewer is dead, OpenEdge Management releases all of its memory. To return to the log file displayed in a dead view, you need to renavigate to it, even if you pinned up the view or saved a link to it before the viewer died.
