Logstash configuration reload

Is the Logstash configuration reloaded every time the agent is restarted? It doesn't seem to pick up my changes immediately (e.g. changed type value)

I'm running it with an embedded elasticsearch v.0.90.7 on Windows 7 and Kibana 3.

Thank you very much!

Regards, Paul

Seems to be available in Logstash 5: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/reloading-config.html

Good news! Dynamic config reloading is currently scheduled for release with Logstash 2.3+(https://www.elastic.co/blog/logstash-lines-2016-02-09)! Just use --reload-interval or send a SIGHUP to reload the config!

Hot Reload is not yet supported. There is a Issue.

The logstash configuration is loaded at startup, so, if you kill your process (to restart it later), there is no reason why it does not work.
