Reloading configuration on-the-fly

[Edwin Zoeller]

Also, if on Linux OS, make it a service and all you have to do is issue:
service Nagios reload

You can send a HUP signal to the Nagios daemon to tell it to re-read the
configuration.

Make sure you verify the configs first though:

/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

Then:

kill -1 `cat /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock`
