Description
To Reproduce
- Create a compose service using multiple containers. One service is an "init" container to setup a database for example and a main service with the restart always policy depends on the successful termination of this "init" service.
- Physically restart the server
- The main service is now offline and we need to retrigger a manual deployment to solve the issue.
Current vs. Expected behavior
The expected behaviors would be a restart of the physical server ensure that the deployments are running in the state they were running before the reboot.
Provide environment information

Research direction
Start with the linked docker-compose.yml and reproduce the deployment after physically rebooting the Debian server, focusing on the init-container dependency and restart policy. Trace the Docker Compose deployment startup path in Dokploy; done means the main service automatically returns to the pre-reboot running state without a manual redeployment.
