Apologies if I have misunderstood, but don't you just do a "recheck" http call?
Hoping this is not too specific to ESGF context, would you not do:
https://<hostname>/thredds/admin/debug?Catalogs/recheck
Supply the username configured in tomcat-users.xml (in ESGF context
this is dnode_user) and the associated password. Look for the line
"reinit ok" in the response.
This is with THREDDS 5.
Regards,
Alan
