adding a service env var reboots container ! is that intended behaviour ?

start service
add a service env var value
container gets rebooted !

is that intended behaviour ?

Hi osde8info,

Yes, services restart when device and fleet-wide variables are added, removed or changed. Everything should work properly and the variables should be set (and available) once the services restart. Can you confirm that?

Hi osde8info,

Yes, changes in service, device or fleet variables will trigger service restarts (though not explicitly referenced in the serv-vars docs.

maybe a doc update is due ?
