The `reload` command triggers a reload of configuration files for the agent.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `SIGHUP` signal is usually used to trigger a reload of configurations,
|
|
|
|
but in some cases it may be more convenient to trigger the CLI instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command operates the same as the signal, meaning that it will trigger
|
|
|
|
a reload, but does not wait for the reload to complete. Any errors with the
|
|
|
|
reload will be present in the agent logs and not in the output of this command.

Not all configuration options are reloadable. See the
