Reloading the configuration

Greetings,

We are currently using version 2.13.3.

We typically set -Dlog4j.configurationFile property on JVM to set the 
URL. Log configuration files are centralized on one web server and 
multiple instances of the application access the same configuration file.

If we change the logging configuration, what will be the best way to 
reload the configuration? Please note configuration file is not local, 
but served over https channel. We already have functionality to update 
any other configuration by sending appropriate signals to application 
and we can easily wire for other configuration updates.

I have tried usual searches  but could not reach any conclusion.


How do I ask log4 to update the configuration - especially if it's 
remote configuration file.


Regards,


Niranjan
