yes, I see your concern :)
But I think that if we want reload it should work for all bearerbox
parts and not only smsc, something like config diff and then reload
changed parts...
Alex, don't get me wrong, I'm not against your patch, I'm just don't
like partial support :)
Please provide userguide patch and it could be commited...
Thanks,
Alex

Example #1: You have a huge queue (hundreds of thousands) of
outgoing messages going out. Restarting the whole service can take
tens of minutes, specially when you're repeatedly tweaking those
services to try to send as fast as possible. This happened to me
before: the carrier was dropping the link when we were sending too
many messages at once, so we had to trial and error with max-pending-
submits and throughput, and each restart took about 15 minutes, so
you get the idea...
Example #2: You have 20+ smsc binds. Turning all those down and up
again repeatedly can annoy a carrier or two, and also hurt your
service level agreements if any.
I can foresee another scenarios where this would be valuable.

Hi Alex,
patch looks ok but I don't really see why you should be unable to
restart the whole bearerbox...
and I think reload should work for all bearerbox parts...
therefore I'm +0 for this patch.
Thanks,

This patch improves the http-based admin commands and fixes some
quirks:
1. It adds 2 new commands: add-smsc and remove-smsc that allows
for dynamic adding/removing of smsc's without restarting kannel
nor any other smsc bind.
2. start-smsc now reloads the smsc list from the config file, so
you can stop-smsc and then start-smsc to reload the configuration.
The only caveat is: do not change the id or admin-id (in that case
you'll have to remove-smsc with the old id/admin-id and add-smsc
with the new one instead).
3. Fixes a bug on stop-smsc and start-smsc. Before, you could
start/stop non-existant smsc's, and despite the request would be
ignored, the interface would say that the smsc was stopped/
started. Now it will return an error and log the reason.
4. Fixes a bug on the id/admin-id functionality when stopping/
starting a group with 2 or more entries with the same id and
different admin-id's. Before, the list would get corrupted when
trying to start again, now it works as expected.
Userguide patch coming soon :)
Please review in the meantime.
