RHEL6 SELinux Upstart - How to reload configuration /etc/init/<conf> without a restart?

Latest response

 A new Upstart (0.6.5) job is created in the /etc/init/<conf-file>.  The process starts when manually called. However, when any attempts are made to call the job from initctl it results in the following:

 

initctl start <name>

 

initctl: Unknown job:

 

 

intictl list  ---does not display my job

 

initctl reload-configuration ---does not appear to help.

 

init q --does not work

 

telinit q/Q -- does not work

 

Reading the man page it seem like Upstart is supposed to watch for changes in the initctl but the reload-configuration should force it anyway.  I am stuck and no I cannot just restart the host which would likely fix the issue.

 

       reload-configuration

              Requests that the init(8) daemon reloads its configuration.

              This command is generally not necessary since init(8) watches its configuration directories with inotify(7)  and  automatically  reloads  in
              cases of changes.

              No jobs will be started by this command.

 

 

Thanks in advance,
