Restart Containers on Kernel Upgrade [message #51109]

I've always been curious about this. When you upgrade the kernel on a host node and reboot the node, the containers get suspended and load back up after the node comes back up. The kernel version inside the containers does not change.

Do containers need to be restarted after a node kernel upgrade to reflect the newer kernel? Or does this not matter at all?
