Other: Signals
--------------

link:other_bundle_cherokee-admin.html[Cherokee-Admin] is all you need to
interact with Cherokee. However, should you want to tap directly into
the underlying communication mechanism you would need to send the
supported signals to the  link:other_bundle_cherokee.html[cherokee] process.

If needed it will relay the appropriate signals to any
link:other_bundle_cherokee-worker.html[cherokee-worker] instances.

The following signals are supported by Cherokee:
