Description

Ambari is able to detect that there are new views available (dynamically). However, there does not appear to be a mechanism to perform a refresh.
What makes the most sense is to refresh everytime the admin view page is accessed and also provide a manual refresh button

User should be able to:
1) Place a new view package on Ambari Server
2) Do not restart Ambari Server
3) While in Admin View, user clicks refresh in browser on Views section
4) Newly deployed view is shown. User can create use the view to create instances, etc.
