Policy CSP - ADMX_ServerManager
Tip
This CSP contains ADMX-backed policies which require a special SyncML format to enable or disable. You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.
The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_ServerManager/ServerManagerAutoRefreshRate
This policy setting allows you to set the refresh interval for Server Manager. Each refresh provides Server Manager with updated information about which roles and features are installed on servers that you are managing by using Server Manager. Server Manager also monitors the status of roles and features installed on managed servers.
If you enable this policy setting, Server Manager uses the refresh interval specified in the policy setting instead of the "Configure Refresh Interval" setting (in Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2), or the "Refresh the data shown in Server Manager every [x] [minutes/hours/days]" setting (in Windows Server 2012) that's configured in the Server Manager console.
If you disable this policy setting, Server Manager doesn't refresh automatically.
If you don't configure this policy setting, Server Manager uses the refresh interval settings that are specified in the Server Manager console.
Note
The default refresh interval for Server Manager is two minutes in Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, or 10 minutes in Windows Server 2012.
