{{Quickfixn}} how to reset seq numbers

[Jiho HAN]

I am using the default file store and the seqnums file contains something like below:

0000000983 : 0000000001

And the counterparty is getting the usual, "MsgSeqNum too high, expecting 2700 but received 980" error and then I get disconnected (I am the initiator here).
I suspect that the mismatched start/end time is causing this drift.

In any case, what is the right course of action if I want to reset the seq number to what the counterparty is expecting?
Do I update 983 to 2700 in the file and restart my application? Is the restart necessary or will the engine pick up the change in the file somehow?
I briefly looked at the source of QuickFix/n and it looks like there is an in-memory cache behind it which leads me to believe that a restart may be necessary.

Thanks
Jiho
