This request function is implemented by Java class com.arbortext.e3.FunctionInit. It directs every Arbortext PE サブプロセス in every Arbortext PE サブプロセス pool to re-initialize and reload all ACL, JavasScript, and VBScript packages. The request sets a flag on each Arbortext PE サブプロセス, but the initialization takes place the next time the Arbortext PE サブプロセス is allocated to a Arbortext Publishing Engine dynamic component. That means that any allocated Arbortext PE サブプロセス won't re-initialize until they are deallocated and subsequently allocated to another request.

You can submit an f=init request from the Reload Applications link on the Arbortext Publishing Engine index page. Refer to Monitoring and Reporting Using a Web Browser for information.

You can load new or updated ACL, JavaScript, or VBScript scripts by using Reload Applications or f=init to instruct the Arbortext PE サブプロセス to reload these types of programs, without restarting the Arbortext PE Request Manager.

You can also update Arbortext PE サブプロセス stylesheets using Reload Applications or f=init to clear all previously cached stylesheets without restarting the Arbortext PE Request Manager. By clearing the stylesheet cache, Arbortext PE サブプロセス will use the updated stylesheet for the next request that uses it.
