In an instructional style:

Find the right metadata ID string from the metadata-providers.xml:
root at idp# grep "MetadataProvider id" 
/opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/metadata-providers.xml

And with the FQDN of the IDP passed in by -u, gives me:

/opt/shibboleth-idp/bin/reload-metadata.sh -id UKfederationMetadata -u 
https://idp.sanger.ac.uk

Which triggered a metadata reload, logged in 
/opt/shibboleth-idp/logs/idp-process.log (with enough DEBUG logging 
turned on)
