+#### **--sdnotify**=**container** | *conmon* | *ignore*
+
+Determines how to use the NOTIFY_SOCKET, as passed with systemd and Type=notify.
+
+Default is **container**, which means allow the OCI runtime to proxy the socket into the
+container to receive ready notification. Podman will set the MAINPID to conmon's pid.
+The **conmon** option sets MAINPID to conmon's pid, and sends READY when the container
+has started. The socket is never passed to the runtime or the container.
+The **ignore** option removes NOTIFY_SOCKET from the environment for itself and child processes,
+for the case where some other process above Podman uses NOTIFY_SOCKET and Podman should not use it.
