Description

Current the DLC lnet reload doesn't do any specific job, it would be nice to implement it. For example, modify /etc/sysconf/lnet.conf (add a new network, etc.), then run /etc/rc.d/init.d/lnet reload to make the changes take effect immediately.

Hi Sarah,
can you give some details on what is expected from reload to do.
If it is to just add new network/peer then yes reload can be used to do that without restarting LNet but if it is meant to modify existing configurations then it would be equivalent to running /etc/rc.d/init.d/lnet restart
