Is there a way to reload database?

Is there a simple way to tell calibre to reload it's database? Preferably from the command line? I use a central calibre database, and server up content internally here. PCs connect directly to the share, and never stay loaded except when actually managing the library, and then only one at a time. But calibre runs natively on the NAS (Windows Storage Server), serving up to tablets and kindles. (Tablets with calibre-companion, my kindle with the web server.)

The problem is the NAS doesn't know the database has changed, so often has a stale view. It would be nice to have a simple calibre-server command to reload the database. Right now I have to RDP in to the NAS, stop calibre and restart it. A simple way to do this from the command line would be really appreciated, since I can easily get a remote command line with PowerShell.
