Prevent OpenVPN from being restarted on 'backup' node

[Deal16]

Hi all

I would like to see if it is possible to prevent the OpenVPN Server from being restarted on the backup node when a configuration sync occurs. I am only using the configuration sync to copy users and certificates from primary to secondary, so that I may have a multi-server OpenVPN 'farm'. I am not using any of the CARP or active/passive features, I just want to sync users and certificates from the primary opnsense server to the secondary opensense server.

I started going down the code rabbit hole and I ended up here as the final stop on my journey, but I can't see where the command to restart OpenVPN is occurring.

I also followed the advice here and that did not affect the restarting of the service.

Any ideas or thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!
