Restart an OOM killed docker automatically (lemmy.world)

I got an home server that is running docker for all my self hosted apps. But sometimes I accidentally trigger Earlyoom by remotely starting expensive docker builds, which kill docker.

I don't have access to my server outside of my home network, so I can't manually restart docker in those situations.

What would be the best way to restart it automatically? I don't mind doing a full system restart if needed

Oh that's not a problem to let a container get killed. It's perfectly fine. What I want is just not crippling my whole server because one container did a funny.

If it keeps docker and the portainer VM I'll be 100% ok, because I can just restart it. I don't want to have remote access to my server outside of my home for security reasons, so this is just the bare minimum

Those remote access fears can be solved with a wireguard VPN

What are your security concerns?
