Service start request repeated too quickly, refusing to start limit

The default limit is to allow 5 restarts in a 10sec period. If a service goes over that threshold due to the Restart= config option in the service definition, it will not attempt to restart any further.

The rates are configured with the StartLimitIntervalSec= and StartLimitBurst= options and the Restart= option controls when SystemD tries to restart a service.

More info in man systemd.unit and man systemd.service.

Then use systemctl daemon-reload to reload unit configuration.
