It does reread the system config file. Several years ago, we had a problem of it picking up the old module. The way we got around that was to specify the MODULE CPLOAD parameter. If you do that, it will work regardless of whether you have changed the CP. I imagine it probably will work without the parameter; however, I haven't tested it in the years since, so I am only speculating.
