title: Can I force a node to send its node object to chef server mid-recipe execution?
body: <p>I'm doing this in a recipe:</p>
  
  <pre><code>tag('mytag')
  nodeobjs = search(:node, 'tags:mytag')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>On first run on a node search() won't find it (until it runs again).</p>
  
  <p>I know the nodes build a local copy of their node object before sending it too the server. Is it possible to force the node to propagate its node object mid-recipe execution?</p>
  
  <p>I could obviously tag the node in a different recipe that runs before this recipe in the run list, but I was just curious if it is possible to call tag('mytag') and have that change immediately propagated.</p>
