Issue/Introduction

Error Message :
N/A

The name of the function, Verify connection to Service Manager, in the context menu in the Automic Web Interface (AWI) is misleading.

The word 'verify' does not imply that any changes will be made but only a simple check is done. However, this function does make changes.

The function should be renamed to clearly indicate that it will make changes, and can result in the loss of data if the SMGR_PORT_RANGE is not configured to include the port number of the service manager.
