Hi,
It really depends what you're changing. If the change relates to a process that get generated during each backups, lets say for instance a buffer size change for the tape devices, that would not require a restart. The next bptm process just needs to start a backup.

If you want to get all the processes down on your linux master use bp.kill_all located in the goodies folder.
Wait for all the processes to stop by themselves if you can. Might take a while but let them do there thing.
