Cherokee-Admin is all you need to interact with Cherokee. However, should you want to tap directly into the underlying communication mechanism you would need to send the supported signals to the cherokee process.
If needed it will relay the appropriate signals to any cherokee-worker instances.
The following signals are supported by Cherokee:
| Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
| SIGHUP | Restarts the server gracefully |
| SIGUSR1 | Restarts the server closing all the opened connections |
| SIGUSR2 | Reopens the log files |
| SIGTERM | Exits |
