Hi, @errygg This issue duplicates #307 and #341
Service restart was disabled intentionally by https://github.com/johnbellone/consul-cookbook/commit/80f4a1ce4edb1638482e2391dabd1ba547ed7fad and https://github.com/johnbellone/consul-cookbook/pull/309 Please, refer to the discussion: https://github.com/johnbellone/consul-cookbook/issues/288
TL;DR: Automatic restart of Consul servers could cause a cluster downtime when you run chef-client simultaneously on your nodes. Also, if Consul version has been changed (upgrade scenario), then Consul servers should be restarted manually, according to the upgrade manual.
Thanks @legal90! I guess I wasn't the first to see this. I'll go ahead and close the issue out. Automate all the things (except consul restarts 😆 )

Had to update the node name to the hostname to support our deployment, but when the node name (i.e. node['consul']['config']['node_name']) attribute was overridden, it did not restart the consul service. Had to manually restart to capture the new node name.
Running on ubuntu jessie with chef client version 12.16.42.
