| Signal | Teleport Daemon Behavior |
|---|---|
USR1 | Dumps diagnostics/debugging information into syslog. |
QUIT | Graceful shutdown. The daemon will wait until connections are dropped. |
TERM , INT or KILL | Immediate non-graceful shutdown. All existing connections will be dropped. |
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 when there are no more clients connected to it. |
