Sometimes you want to restart your Apache server after changing some configuration in your virutual hosts,sites etc, but you have few hundred clients currently downloading files from your server and you don’t want to disconnect them.

#/etc/init.d/apache2 graceful

This will gracefully restart your Apache with new configuration without affecting your client’s connections.
