Note that this means a full rsyslogd restart is done. This has, among others,
the consequence that TCP and other connections are torn down. Also, if any
queues are not running in disk assisted mode or are not set to persist data
on shutdown, queue data is lost. HUPing rsyslogd is an extremely expensive
