Teleport Signals
You can send the following signals to a teleport process to trigger different
functionality.
To send a signal, execute the following command on the host where teleport is
running, replacing SIG with the name of the signal.
$ kill -SIG
| Signal | Teleport Daemon Behavior |
|---|---|
USR1 | Dumps diagnostics/debugging information into syslog. |
QUIT | Graceful shutdown. The daemon will stop accepting new connections and it will wait (for up to 30 hours) until existing connections are closed before exiting. |
TERM, INT | Immediate non-graceful shutdown. All existing connections will be closed after a very short delay. |
USR2 | Forks a new Teleport daemon to serve new connections. |
HUP | Forks a new Teleport daemon to serve new connections and initiates the graceful shutdown of the existing process, same as SIGQUIT. |
