The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2001

This article was previously published under Q287329

SYMPTOMS

When you configure the automatic refresh interval for a SharePoint Portal Server dashboard to a small number, it can adversely affect the performance of the server and cause clients to have problems connecting to the workspace.

CAUSE

The Digital Dashboard framework allows the refresh interval to be set as low as one second. However, it is not recommended that you set the refresh rate to lower than five minutes (300 seconds).

MORE INFORMATION

You can change the refresh frequency of a dashboard by clicking the Settings link in the top right corner of the currently displayed dashboard, and typing the number of seconds under Refresh this dashboard automatically.
