No, it will not kill running jobs.  You will need to send a
CLEAR_SETTINGS_CACHE event to get Myth to reread the setting from the DB
if you change it, because Myth normally caches the settings
table.

Right now I don't know of a way to do this from the command line, in the
source code it is a call to RemoteSendMessage("CLEAR_SETTINGS_CACHE").

Are you using 0.20, -fixes, or SVN head?  I've thought about adding a way
to clear the settings cache from the command line before, but haven't
done it yet.

Yes, you can also use mythjobqueue on the 2nd server without any tuners
if you want rather than running the full mythbackend.
