Hi,

In that reference snippet they included the phrase "start the process manually", which makes me think they wouldn't be using systemd when they started it, and in turn it would be a problem because if the service stopped and came back on through systemd then the flag wouldn't take effect.

But in our case, we write the options out to the systemd unit file so they always take effect. That's all handled here https://github.com/nickjj/ansible-docker/blob/master/templates/etc/systemd/system/docker.service.j2#L17. If it's empty, nothing gets output, otherwise it creates options out of the list passed in.

I don't think we really need to change it.

Yes @nickjj, that makes sense.
Thank you for the info.

No problem. On paper, writing out the json file is a better solution but I do feel it complicates things for little benefit in this specific case.

Thanks for the info and sharing the code @nickjj.
