> Changes to the config file need to be atomic for this approach to work 
> correctly,

I agree. The FairShare scheduler re-reads the config and if-and-only-if it can 
parse the entire file does it accept the new configuration. It works for us, 
but if  a set of new parameters need to take effect atomically, then there 
could be a problem.

> An external application (an Ops script, or some CLI-based tool) can change 
> the configuration of the Capacity Scheduler (change the capacities of various 
> queues, for example) by updating its config file. This application then needs 
> to tell the Capacity Scheduler that its config has changed, which causes the 
> Scheduler to re-read its configuration. It's possible that the Capacity 
> Scheduler may need to interact with external applications in other similar 
> ways.
