In file /etc/init.d/openvpn on line 86 as part of the

$OPTARGS is not set anywhere in the script.
It's set in /etc/default/openvpn. However, it's used to pass *optional*
arguments, so there's no requirement for it to be set at all.
I recommend that a line be inserted above this one to the following
effect:
OPTARGS="--config "$CONFIG_DIR/$NAME.conf
That doesn't make sense. The call to start the daemon is:
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo \
--pidfile /run/openvpn/$NAME.pid \
--exec $DAEMON -- $OPTARGS --writepid /run/openvpn/$NAME.pid \
$DAEMONARG $STATUSARG --cd $CONFIG_DIR \
--config $CONFIG_DIR/$NAME.conf || STATUS=1
so the --config argument that you propose will already be in use.
