Can you paste your agent's metadata in here or in pastebin so we can take a look?

Pacemaker actually reads the agent's metadata to know if the reload option is possible.  It then checks to see if the parameters that changed where marked as unique or not in the agent's metadata before deciding if a reload is possible instead of a restart.
