So they do share the same folder. Is it possible that in previous cases I didn't give Calibre time to process the new database?

I will still check that the Env. Variable is shared. That could account for some differences I am still seeing, but at least now I see some logic.

Thank you.
Library (DB) data changes should be instantaneous (one of the reasons Local attached Drives are needed).
Now, the content server may lag AND you will need to refresh the page that would show the new entry
