Restarting device manager service

Is it ok to restart device manager services while there is an active job is running and drive is in writing mode? in one word is it ok to restart it when the jobs are running?

    You can only restart Device Management service when NO tape drives are in use.

You will receive an error if you try and Device Manager will not restart.

Any specific reason why you want to restart while a job is running?
