Title:
  Openstack services should support SIGHUP signal

Status in OpenStack Image Registry and Delivery Service (Glance):
  New
Status in Oslo - a Library of Common OpenStack Code:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In order to more effectively manage the unlinked and open (lsof +L1)
  log files descriptors w/o restarting the services, SIGHUP signal
  should be accepted by every Openstack service.

  That would allow, e.g. logrotate jobs to gracefully HUP services after
  their log files were rotated. The only option we have for now is to
  force the services restart, quite a poor option from the services
  continuous accessibility PoV.

  Note: according to  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_signal
  SIGHUP
     ... Many daemons will reload their configuration files and reopen their logfiles instead of exiting when receiving this signal.
