------------------------------------------

This is still an issue with all recent versions of Asterisk, we will try to deploy patch for Asterisk 16, 17 and 18 and I will report here if it helps.

> Currently (also in 1.8.0): "Changing to the linear strategy currently requires asterisk to be restarted."
> Though it can be proudly represented as a "feature, not a bug", I don't think this behaviour is suitable for 24/7 systems where users can often change their settings. In this case asterisk restart would hangup all active calls, which is a BAD THING. (This part is more like a feature request, and the bug goes below)
> So, here goes the bug:
> According to app_queue.c sources, this message occurs only for realtime. And, actually, one can't see this message if queue strategy was changed in queues.conf. 
> But, after altering queues config file and invoking either "config reload /etc/asterisk/queues.conf" or "queues reload all", members order in queue is not the same as in .conf file, and incoming calls are routed to queue members also in wrong order.
> PS If used strategy is set to "linear" and asterisk is restarted, order of members in queue and config file is the same, and the bug doesn't reproduce. 
> Of course, adding a message "Please, restart asterisk" for static configuration reload wouldn't be a best solution. I'd prefer not to restart asterisk at all.
