I’m certain you need to destroy and start to change the env variables applied to the container.

Of course, if they have done upgrades with docker manager, those will be lost when the container is destroyed, which is why the rebuild is the safest recommendation. Maybe it’s best to recommend the rebuild since it’s the most foolproof.
