I’m going to run a lot of containers and I need to be constantly working. But when the container is for some reason stopped, it will automatically run. What tools do I use? Thank you!

Including --restart always will always try to keep your container running.

Thank you. But to me, this function is not suitable. If you kill a container or it completes its work on a critical error, this function does not restore it.

For finer control you can look into managing Docker containers with Systemd.
