Understanding settings to ensure RPM based Apache HTTPD is stopping in a graceful manner.

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Based on documentation from the apache org, the kill -WINCH is a graceful stop. And, it is unclear by looking at the service file, how long it waits to kill the httpd process. Is it needed to add a TimeoutStopSec key value pair to specify how long we want to wait ?

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Core Services
    • Apache HTTPD 2.4.x
