Description Angel Vera CLA 2010-05-12 11:52:42 EDT 
We are currently caching the launch object inside of the Server class, but adopter do not have a way of refreshing this object.

Without access to refresh the launch object there is cases where the call to server.getLaunch will return null when in fact there is a true valid launch object associated. 

The adopter reported this problem while doing testing with restart cases.

* Explain why you believe this is a stop-ship defect. Or, if it is a "hotbug" (requested by an adopter) please document it as such. 
Currently adopters do not have a way to refresh the launch object, when the launch object has gone stale.

* Is there a work-around? If so, why do you believe the work-around is insufficient? 
No

* How has the fix been tested? Is there a test case attached to the bugzilla record? Has a JUnit Test been added? 
Ensuring that changes do not cause any regression, all server.core and server.ui JUnits were ran.

* Give a brief technical overview. Who has reviewed this fix? 
The changes introduce a new API at the Server and ServerBehaviourDelegate. Adopter do not need to react, unless they want to make use of the new method. 

* What is the risk associated with this fix? 
medium to low
