assuming you are implementing kubernetes
kubectl exec -it $(kubectl get pods -l
app.kubernetes.io/component=pgpool,app.kubernetes.io/name=postgresql-ha -o
jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') -- pg_md5 -m
--config-file="/opt/bitnami/pgpool/conf/pgpool.conf" -u "foo" "bar"
//cat out pgpool af

You should look for and leverage the difference between when something must
be “restarted” and when it has provided a mechanism for “reloading”.

If we plan to use pool_hba.conf, then we must use the pool_passwd file to
maintain passwords for all database users. This approach requires that
every time a new user is created, their password is added to the pool_passwd
