condor_restart restarts the condor_master on the local machine, or all the machines specified in the hostname list. If, for some reason, the condor_master needs to be restarted again with a fresh state, this is the command that should be used to do so. Also, if the DAEMON_LIST vairable in the condor configuration file has been changed, one must restart the condor_master in order to see these changes. A simple condor_reconfigure is not enough in this situation. condor_master will safely shut down all running jobs and all submitted jobs from the machine being restarted, shutdown all the child daemons of the condor_master, and restart the condor_master.
