A systems administrator is troubleshooting a complex NGINX configuration that includes dozens of separate files via the `include` directive. The administrator wants to dump the entire parsed configuration to standard output to verify exactly how NGINX is interpreting the combined files. Which command achieves this?
You are writing a custom bash script to manage NGINX via POSIX signals directly, without using the `nginx -s` wrapper. Which TWO signals will trigger a graceful stop and a configuration reload, respectively? (Select TWO)
True or False: Executing `nginx -s reload` immediately terminates all active worker processes and drops in-flight client connections in order to quickly apply the new configuration.
A Senior Linux Engineer is managing a critical NGINX edge proxy. During a routine audit, an automated script mistakenly executed `kill -9` against the NGINX master process PID. The master process is now dead, but the NGINX worker processes are still running and actively handling client traffic. The engineer needs to recover the environment so that a new master process can be started with the current configuration, without dropping the traffic currently being handled by the orphaned worker processes. Which sequence of actions represents the most appropriate troubleshooting step to resolve this specific state?
A system administrator has configured a custom log rotation script for NGINX. After the script moves `access.log` to `access.log.1`, they notice that NGINX continues writing new log entries to the renamed `access.log.1` file instead of creating a new `access.log`. Which command must the script execute to instruct NGINX to close the old log files and open new ones?
