Component/Job not visible in Server Administration applet

Today we got the new Siebel 8.1 Env to work on, being set-up by our Admin team. Everything is new because the fresh implementation has just kicked-off and the new team of developers required to get their Database Extract.

So, as per the normal process, I went to "Administration - Server Management -> Jobs" view to start a job for "Generate New Database". I clicked on "New" and tried opening the "Pick Applet" which is available on "Component/Job" field on the Jobs applet and got suprise to see that no "Component" was available in the pick applet.

hmmm.... first thing came into my mind was : "Any component is running on this Siebel Server?". Well to check it, I went to "Administration - Server Configuration -> Enterprises -> Component Groups", queried for "Siebel Remote" and found that all the components was enable on the Siebel Server. So no issues from components side.

After some of the discussion I came to know about the issue and let me know how I resolved it. I went to "Component Definitions" view and clicked on "Synchronize" button. It sometime for the hour-glass to go-off and then I again tried created a job for "Generate New Database" and all the components are now displaying in the pick applet.

Advice for "Admin People", please click on synchronize button after setting up the new Siebel Env :)
