ssh connection failed just after systemctl reload sshd in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

I'm using the following command, but I sometimes got a connection failure to the sshd server.

ssh root@sshd.test.server systemctl reload sshd.service; ssh root@sshd.test.server

The similar command using service command worked completely on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
