Sync with storage

When deleting archived, backed up and imported data sets using Life cycle management or the a CLI command, the data set might still be visible in the web UI. To update the web UI, the management server performs an automatic synchronization with the storage device every 5 minutes. A Sync With Storage button is available in the AGENTS screen to initiate the process on demand. This action requires admin permissions. A message is displayed in the AGENTS screen when the action is completed.
