I created a script that will append a cron job if it's not in the crontab file, but the problem is the appended job will not work unless I edit the crontab file using crontab -e. Is there a way to refresh cron in AIX without killing the process?

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
