Force clients to request policy updates

Hello all,

Does anyone know of a way to make a client request a policy update from the Enterprise Console manually through the command line? I'm trying to get a Deep Freeze maintenance window set up for our workstations and I need to get the policy down to a machine with some haste so that it will know if it needs to update or not, etc. The policies only seem to push down right away if the computers are moved into a new group while connected to SEC.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello again,
I have another question regarding the policies. Are these computers vulnerable to infection when transferring policies, or when the Sophos Agent service starts and no policies are found because I deleted them? Or am I correct to assume that the other portions of the program (e.g. Sophos Antivirus service) will continue to run using the policies loaded in memory? I want to make sure on-access scanning is enabled during the process of policy updates.
Thank you for your time!
Sincerely,
-Cameron
