You can set the restart policy using the following syntax:

    $ docker container run --restart=POLICY [OPTIONS] IMAGE[:TAG]  [COMMAND] [ARG...] 

Here is an example of using the preceding command:

    $ docker container run --restart=always -d -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash

There are three restart policies to choose from:

• no: This does not start the container if it dies
• on-failure: This restarts the container if it fails with a nonzero exit code
• always: This always restarts the container without worrying about the return code
