+You can change the default ('always') [Docker restart policy](https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/start-containers-automatically/#use-a-restart-policy) by specifying `restartPolicy` in the 'docker' section of the config:

+```
+app: {

+    restartPolicy: 'no'
+  }

 ## Reverse Proxy
 
 Meteor Up can create a nginx reverse proxy that will handle SSL, and, if you are running multiple apps on the server, it will route requests to the correct app. The proxy is shared between all apps on the servers.
