reconfigure

This command bring down, unsupervise, parse again and bring up service.

Interface

reconfigure [ -h ] [ -P ] service

This command is a convenient way to execute the stop, free, parse, and start commands simultaneously. It's used when you modify a service's frontend file and want to apply the modifications.

If the service is running, it is stopped and then unsupervised. Afterward, the service is parsed again and restarted. If the service isn't running, only the parse process is executed.

For module service types, the same process is applied to all services within the module. If the module is part of a tree associated with the boot group, only the parse process is executed to avoid interrupting the boot sequence. The changes will be applied during the next reboot.

Multiple services can be disabled by separating their names with a space.

This command handles interdependencies for the stop, free and start process.

Options

• -h: prints this help.

• -P: Do not handle service dependencies. In such cases, the reconfigure command will not attempt to stop/start the services that are dependent on the service, regardless of their current state and only apply the parse process.

Usage examples

Reconfigures the foo service

66 reconfigure foo

Reconfigures the foo@bar module service

66 reconfigure foo@bar
