Update

Refresh the package source lists on the target host. This is equivalent to running apt-get update -- it does not upgrade any packages:

$ osapi client node package update --target web-01

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  STATUS  CHANGED  ERROR
  ok      true

Broadcast to refresh sources across all hosts:

$ osapi client node package update --target _all

  Job ID: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

  HOSTNAME  STATUS   CHANGED  ERROR
  web-01    ok       true
  web-02    ok       true
  mac-01    skipped  false    unsupported platform
