----------------------------------------

Hi [~mithmatt] I like the idea of Ambari supporting restart-less configuration 
changes.

This may be a naive question but how will Ambari communicate the configuration 
change to the service when restart is not required? I missed that from a quick 
look at the doc.

Also is the supports-reload or restart-required parameter expected to be 
configured by the administrator? That could be error prone.

> Services should be able to reload configs without requiring restart

> The current implementation forces users to restart the service if any of the 
> configurations have been updated. 
> However some of the services support reloading the configuration parameters 
> during run-time which does not require restart of the service.
> This behavior should be driven by metadata defined in configuration files.
