Objects modified on the server have to be invalidated on the client
side, you can do this by flushing cache or remounting of the client
or using 'flush' utility on the server.

Also object metadata changes are updated on the server when cache
coherency protocol forces client to flush its content, otherwise it will
stay the same as server's UID.
