SIGNALS

       SIGHUP This  signal  causes  a  reconfiguration  event,  equivalent to running traffic_ctl
              config reload.

       SIGINT, SIGTERM
              These  signals  cause  traffic_manager   to   exit   after   also   shutting   down
              traffic_server.

       SIGUSR2
              This  signal  causes  the traffic_manager and traffic_server processes to close and
              reopen their file descriptors for all of their log files. This allows  the  use  of
              external tools to handle log rotation and retention. For instance, logrotate(8) can
              be configured to rotate the various  Apache  Traffic  Server™  logs  and,  via  the
              logrotate  postrotate script, send a -SIGUSR2 to the traffic_manager process. After
              the signal is received, Apache Traffic Server™ will stop logging to the  now-rolled
              files and will reopen log files with the originally configured log names.

EXPONENTIAL BACK-OFF DELAY

          If  traffic_server  has  issues  communicating  with   traffic_manager  after  a crash,
          traffic_manager will retry to  start   traffic_server  using  an  exponential  back-off
          delay,  which  will make traffic_manager to retry starting traffic_server from 1s until
          it reaches the max ceiling time. The ceiling time  is  configurable   as  well  as  the
          number of times that traffic_manager will keep trying to start traffic_server. A random
          variance will be added to the sleep time on every retry

       NOTE:
          For more information about this configuration please check records.config
