How Are State Models Activated?
A new state model is not available to users until you start a new Siebel Application Object Manager server process. By restarting the server or the AOM server components, you start new AOM processes that obtain the new state model from the refreshed state model cache.
The State Model Cache can be periodically refreshed depending on the value for the Business Service User Property Default Cache Time found in the State Model Cache Business Service. The default is zero. When the value is zero, the cache will not be refreshed automatically but will only be refreshed when the Application Object Manager is restarted. If you set a value (the value is in minutes) greater than zero, the State Model Cache will refresh after that amount of time in minutes.
For example, if you set the Default Cache Time to 30, the State Model Cache will refresh every 30 minutes.
