Jan, The telinit q command has the inittab run again. Whether your process will be brought back into a running state kind of depends on what you have on the line in the inittab... here is a sample line of the entry that starts our TSM server plus allows me to initialize the server without rebooting the box. The key to this is that I have placed the initialization into the "b" argument for initializing processes plus the "2" (init 2) for start ups. Thus if I want to restart the TSM server I type: telinit b.
autosrvr:b2:once:/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/rc.adsmserv Hope that answers your question.

We know it is not a matter of the box not seeing its' inittab - fearing this, I set it to :respawn: and boy, did it respawn!
