Systemd supervises services it has started and can act upon unexpected scenarios. This change will restart OpenVPN after 5 seconds if the OpenVPN process exits unexpectedly.
Define "unexpectedly" (my2c: something needs to be fixed)
The on-failure mode is the recommended mode by upstream systemd.
IE: This is the way "upstream systemd" recommend to use systemd *if* "some failed process" is to be restarted. (my2c: A decision better left to the sys-admin not openvpn developer)
This change have been tested on a test server for some month, and it works indeed as intended when provoking the OpenVPN process to stop.
Define "provoking" (my2c: not unexpectedly at all, nothing to fix here) Either way, it is only a few lines of a systemd unit.service file to be deleted/customised by the relevant sys-admin.
