We now have a command "ods-ksmutil notify" (which uses the HUP signal) that wake the Enforcer up and process your change. 

Once the Enforcer have updated the signconf for that zone, then it will call "ods-signer update <zone>". So there is no need to tell the Signer Engine to sign this new zone.

How do you HUP the signer?
