Welcome Aboard :P
Restartability has nothing to do with the scheduling piece. Restartability is something you design into your sequence. "Reset if required and then run" just tells DSEngine what to do. If a reset is required, the job will be reset and then run. If a sequence is controlling jobs then choosing this option is ok. But if sequences are controlling other sequences and you have the checkpoint option checked in the job properties (basically for restartability), it will not restart again from the failed point as DSEngine tends to reset the sequence before running it, hence clearing its checkpoints.
