Anyone using conserver on RHEL7
Hello,

Just curious if anyone is using conserver on RHEL7 and is using
systemctl reload conserver to pull in new changes?

Currently doing a reload fails.

Just setup a test box and noticed that's no longer working like on RHEL6

RHEL 6
[root@conserver-02 ~]# conserver -V
conserver: conserver.com version 8.1.18


RHEL7
[root@conserver-02 ~]# conserver -V
conserver: conserver.com version 8.2.0


Thanks any feedback would be great.

We are using conserver on some RHEL7 servers, but they rarely need a
reconfig after we set them up. I looked at the systemd unit file and
ExecReload is not defined, so reloads will probably fail. While getting
them working, I think I just stopped and started the service.

Looking at the systemd.service man page, it looks like using signals is
frowned upon but still available. Something like

ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID

should still work. There's a possibility of using a console zap but I
think that would require some non-default configuration.

# console -M localhost -z reconfig
127.0.0.1: unauthorized command
