Use at the server console to enable configuration changes made since the commands in the netinfo.cfg file were executed.
REINITIALIZE SYSTEM
REINITIALIZE SYSTEM compares the current netinfo.cfg file with the previous one, which became effective the last time you ran the INITIALIZE SYSTEM or REINITIALIZE SYSTEM command. If REINITIALIZE SYSTEM finds any new commands in the current netinfo.cfg file, it executes them.
REINITIALIZE SYSTEM also informs any Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)-registered NLM™ file that it is executing. This is a call-back mechanism that enables NLM files that store configuration information outside the netinfo.cfg file to know that changes to the configuration have taken place.
REINITIALIZE SYSTEM unloads any NLM affected by a configuration change. If REINITIALIZE SYSTEM cannot unload the NLM because of interdependencies with other modules, the configuration change will not take effect. Additionally, not all NLM files register with SNMP for notification of REINITIALIZE SYSTEM.
When you create a new configuration or delete an existing configuration, REINITIALIZE SYSTEM recognizes the change. However, REINITIALIZE SYTEM may not recognize changes to an already configured NLM that involve more than loading, unloading, binding, or unbinding protocol stacks.
IMPORTANT:If you are changing an existing configuration, the most effective way to ensure the changes are recognized is to bring down the server. Alternatively, if you know which NLM files have been changed by your modifications, you can unload them, then execute REINITIALIZE SYSTEM.
