  1. How do you make systemd restart a service automatically if it crashes?

    Set Restart=on-failure (or always) in the [Service] section, usually with RestartSec= to add a delay. systemd then restarts the process after a crash, and StartLimitBurst and StartLimitIntervalSec stop endless crash loops.
