Hi Ken,

Yep I saw in xdmp:host-status there is a timestamp for those config files. But 
I think this method will just tell me if there is a change – not if it requires 
a restart.

My plan at the moment is to add the host ids returned from 
admin:save-configuration-without-restart()  to a map in a server field.

Thanks
Rob

All the ‘cold’ changes affect either all hosts in a group or none ( with the 
exception of mimetypes, which is global )

http://docs.marklogic.com/guide/admin/hotcold#chapter

so you could possibly experiment with looking at the last write time of the 
relevant configuration file  ( i.e. groups.xml / mimetypes.xml ), via 
xdmp:filesystem-directory ( e.g. groups.xml ) and comparing that with the last 
restart time ( via xdmp:host-status )

I just ran a quick test to see whether re-running 
admin:save-configuration-without-restart() with the results of 
admin:get-config() would give you that list, but it doesn't. I think your 
options are to write the list of servers that need restart into the database or 
handle it at the client level (have your calls return the list and output or 
track that).

Hi,

I¹m using admin:save-configuration-without-restart() in setup scripts, I
know it returns a list of hosts that require a restart, but would like to
get that information independently, so I can run a bunch of scripts and
then check what needs restarting. Something like
admin:get-hosts-requiring-restart(). I was hoping it would be in
xdmp:host-status() but seems not.

Thanks
Rob
