dbx is filling up the splunkd.log

I instated the new db connect over the old one.

I have this line in the dbx inputs.conf

[script://$SPLUNK_HOME\etc\apps\dbx\bin\jbridge_server.py]
disabled = 0

I changed disable = 1 to stop the jbridge scripted from filling up the splunkd.log but it is still running. How can I stop this .py without restarting splunkd

For the most part Splunk only reloads configs on a restart. Tat said, if you can reach it as an application configuration through the GUI you might have more luck in disabling it and persuading it to stop. Just speculation, mind. Failing that you will just have to bite the bullet and restart. Unless you have logs coming in over UDP somehow (Splunk native syslog server?) it shouldn't cause too much of a problem just bouncing Splunk.

Thanks I tried the GUI first. The GUI did not update the congif file so I tried that second. the system is monitored for down time and I am not allowed to take it off line without notifying the system owner.

Thanks for the suggestions.
