Hi Guido,
Thanks for your report (a long time ago already).
I'm going to answer it for the situation in the soon to be released
Debian Buster.
There are two processes, (o)xenstored and xenconsoled. The xenstored
process must never be stopped while the dom0 is running, since it has
internal state about all running domains (even about dom0). That is why
the init scripts only start it if it's not there, but never restart or
stop it.
The xenconsoled process can be stopped and started again while domUs are
running, and the init script currently also does that when calling it
with restart / stop etc.
So, the behavior is as intended.
Have fun,
Hans
