 # restarting once does the job or restarting all 5 times does not help
 # and we just end up hitting the 5 limit anyway.
 #
+# - Change the StartLimitIntervalSec to 30s
+# The BMC CPU performance is already challenged. When a service is
+# failing and a core dump is being generated and collected into a dump,
+# it's even more challenged. Recent failures have shown situations where
+# the service does not fail again until 15-20 seconds after the initial
+# failure which means the default of 10s for this results in the service
+# being restarted indefinitely. Change this to 30s to only allow a service
+# to be restarted StartLimitBurst times within a 30s interval before
+# being put in a permenant fail state.
+#
 # See systemd-system.conf(5) for details on the conf files
