haproxy process running, processing one very long request. I run another haproxy -sf, which does the whole reload, etc stuff. The long request (ldap database query) continues on its way. :) So that's good :)
But I thought the old process would stick around until that entire request was done, even though the new haproxy process is now running and processing all new incoming requests and doing the balancing, etc. But a quick ps -auxw | grep haproxy shows only one process. I just expected two. I guess it's ok, since the big long request continues (doesn't get aborted), and the new config file parameters are working fine, and new incoming connections are being processed :) Anyway, just thought I'd ask on that :) Thank you, PH
