Hi All,
When we issue a reload to Nginx binary (<binary_location> -s reload), what are the steps involved inthe spawning of new set of worker processes?
Is it something like, while the older worker processes are still running or are serving in flight requests, Nginx spawns the newer worker processes and then brings down the older processes once they have served all the accepted requests?
Also, is there any chance where one of the spawned up newer worker processes after reload, uses the PID of the older/earlier running Nginx worker process?
Thanks,
Shiv
