Hmm..We are not doing yet, but are planning on using traffic_ctl to update our ssl certs etc soon and I was hoping to use “status” as a means to ensure if there’s any pending update that hasn’t been applied or also as a means to confirm that the last “reload” was completed successfully.
Is there any alternate planned for status if we are thinking about removing it? Even if it doesn’t tell which specific config need to be reloaded, it seems like it’s still got some value. - Sudheer > On Oct 10, 2019, at 3:34 PM, Fei Deng <duke8...@apache.org> wrote: > > While fixing the problem where "remap.config" gets reloaded automatically, > we noticed it is related to the command "traffic_ctl config status".
