Hello,
I noticed that the reload command in the rsyslog initscript doesn't do anything

which initscript is this? what distro are you using?
reload)
exit 3

I have seen recent discutions about HUP signal and that rsyslog must be
*restarted* to use a new configuration.
I would suggest, to make it clear to all users, to
- either remove the reload command
- either add a warning. For exemple "WARNING : reload command is deprecated, you
must restart $0"
What do you think?
I agree that having reload just exit is wrong. I think it's mandatory for some
distros to have the reload command, the fact that it exits with 3 is returning
an error (and 3 may mean that the command is not supported for that distro), but
I agree that adding a warning output would make sense.
