+# Zigbee2MQTT
+
+## Gotchas
+
+### Safety against errors
+
+Even though Zigbee2MQTT might run fine for months, it could suddenly start crashing periodically.
+
+One example is the Zigbee USB device
+[suddenly stop working](https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt/issues/17809) after having worked
+flawlessly for a while.
+
+:::note
+
+When Zigbee2MQTT docker crashes, it will not restart automatically.
+
+:::
+
+To solve this, I've added `--restart unless-stopped` to Extra Parameters in the docker (advanced)
+edit view
