The Cache Management dialog is where you manage various Policy Server caches.
The following cache management options are available:
All Caches Group Box
Flushes all Policy Server and associated agent caches: user sessions, resource information, and user directory caches, including certificate CRLs. This process takes up to twice the time specified by the Policy Server poll interval while the Policy Server synchronizes caches.
Note: Flushing all caches may adversely affect access times for protected resources, since all requests immediately following the cache flush must retrieve information from user directories and the policy store. However, this action may be necessary if critical user privileges and policy changes must go into effect immediately
If selected, all user sessions are removed from the user cache when you click the Flush button.
If selected, the DN specified using the associated Directory and DN controls will be removed from the user cache when you click Flush.
Specifies the user directory that contains the DN you want to flush from the user cache.

Clicking this button does one of the following:
Flushes all resource caches and forces Web Agents to authorize requests against the Policy Server. This process takes up to twice the time specified by your Policy Server poll interval while the Policy Server synchronizes caches.
Toggles between enabling or disabling cache flushing.
