When to restart gssproxy/rpc.gssd?
by John Devitofranceschi
There seem to be a few configuration files that might affect the behaviour of gssproxy/rpc.gssd.
The following leap to mind (any others?):/etc/gssproxy/*.conf/etc/nfs.conf/etc/idmapd.conf
If an operator would like to have changes to those files take effect immediately (without a reboot), which processes should be restarted? Or HUP'd?
Should gssproxy be restarted whenever rpc.gssd is restarted (or vice versa).
I've searched through the relevant RHEL8 man pages, but I see no guidance on this.
Also, besides the expected brief outage caused by bouncing these processes, are there any caveats about restarting them on a running system?
Thanks in advace for any info!
