Reload configuration cache. Ignored if cache is being currently loaded. Default configuration file (unless -c option is specified) will be used to find PID file and signal will be sent to process, listed in PID file.

snmp_cache_reload
Reload SNMP cache, clear the SNMP properties (engine time, engine boots, engine id, credentials) for all hosts.

housekeeper_execute
Execute the housekeeper. Ignored if housekeeper is being currently executed.

trigger_housekeeper_execute
Execute the trigger housekeeper (remove problems for deleted triggers). Ignored if trigger housekeeper for services is being currently executed.

diaginfo[=section]
Log internal diagnostic information of the specified section. Section can be historycache, preprocessing, alerting, lld, valuecache, locks. By default diagnostic information of all sections is logged.

ha_status

ha_remove_node[=target]
Remove the high availability (HA) node specified by its name or ID. Note that active/standby nodes cannot be removed.
