Synopsis
condor_restart [-help -version]
condor_restart[-debug] [-graceful -fast -peaceful] [-pool centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber]] [-name hostnamehostname-addr
"<a.b.c.d:port>""<a.b.c.d:port>"-constraint expression-all] [-daemon daemonname]
Description
condor_restartrestarts a set of Condor daemons on a set of machines. The daemons will be put into a consistent state, killed, and then
invoked anew.
If, for example, the condor_masterneeds to be restarted again with a fresh state, this is the command that should be used to do so. If the
DAEMON_LIST variable in the configuration file has been changed, this command is used to restart the condor_masterin order to see this
change. The condor_reconfigurecommand cannot be used in the case where the DAEMON_LIST expression changes.
The command condor_restartwith no arguments or with the -daemon masteroption will safely shut down all running jobs and all submitted jobs
from the machine(s) being restarted, then shut down all the child daemons of the condor_master, and then restart the condor_master. This,
in turn, will allow the condor_masterto start up other daemons as specified in the DAEMON_LIST configuration file entry.
For security purposes (authentication and authorization), this command requires an administrator's level of access. See section 3.6.1on
page for further explanation.
