pm2 watch + Cluster Mode reload or restart?

If I'm on Cluster Mode with --watch, when a file is updated, will pm2 automatically restart the app, or reload (0 downtime) the app?

Solution

  • It will restart the app

    No 0 downtime reload

    From the doc :

    Note : Watching system does not provide any graceful action, pm2 kills and restarts your application without sending SIGINT
