Restarting a connector completely stops and then restarts its tasks.
This helps fix temporary issues or apply new configuration changes without having to recreate the connector.
During a restart, data processing pauses briefly while the connector shuts down and restarts its tasks.
To restart a connector:
Select the connector you want to restart.
From the Selected menu, select Commands > Restart.
The Confirm Restart action dialog opens.
Click Yes to restart immediately, or Schedule to perform the action later.
(See Scheduling Jobs for more information.)
When you restart a connector, its status changes to RESTARTING while the worker process stops the current tasks and starts them again.
Once the tasks are successfully reinitialized, the status changes back to RUNNING.
