asterisk users - Mar 2005 - How do I reload extensions included in a switch statement in extensions.conf?

Hi,

I have two Asterisk servers and I forward calls from one to the other. 
How do I reload extensions included in a switch statement in 
extensions.con? I have tried "extensions reload", "reload"
and "restart
now", and it's only "restart now" that works. Is this how it
is supposed
to work or can it be a misconfiguration?

Regards,
