Bug Description

[Impact]

restarting the daemon instance doesn't always work properly

[Test Case]

configure an instance, try restarting it

[Regression Potential]

low, it's verified to work on a later release

--

When calling /etc/init.d/dirsrv restart the daemon doesn't fully shutdown after stop before start is called. The effect of this is that the service will stop if started and vice-versa. Adding a sleep between stop and start seems to fix this issue, though is probably not the right answer. The init script in RHEL/CentOS appears to work correctly, and is attached in case it is helpful.
