If the file in /etc/init.d has a "reload" option (and I'm assuming mosquito is a service) then you can use that to simply make the service reread it's configuration files and not stop.

from the man mosquitto, I have found a solution:
send a signal (hup==sighup) to the mosquitto pid:
it is work fine, and the log file print: config is reloaded.
===================================
ps -e | grep mosquitto | awk '{print $1}' | xargs kill -hup
