No. The Hobbit server has no way of contacting the client to ask for a
refresh.


If you can login to the client host, then restarting the Hobbit client
will result in an immediate update of the client data.


For network tests, you can login as the hobbit user on the server
running your network tests, and then run

   bbcmd bbtest-net HOSTNAME

to force a refresh of the network test status for this particular host.
