You can find very similar question at Restart process script linux.

Linux doesn't have general command for restart, normally you should kill your process and start it over. However, if your process has been started as a service, i.e. it's contained in /etc/init.d/ directory, then you can do the following:

/etc/init.d/SERVICE_NAME restart

or

service SERVICE_NAME restart
