-restart working correctly

A Lotus Open Mic presentation on compact -replica makes clear the -restart option can be used with multiple databases in an *.ind file

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27039379

Entries in log.nsf indicate the ind file and -restart are working. e.g.

06/08/2014 07:15:33   Compacting /home/notes/data/ddm.nsf (Domino Domain Monitor (8)),  weekly_compact.ind -REPLICA -RESTART
> drop ddm.nsf
06/08/2014 07:15:40   Compact -REPLICA failure, rename of dirty NSF file, DB: /home/notes/data/ddm.nsf
06/08/2014 07:15:40   Error compacting /home/notes/data/ddm.nsf,  weekly_compact.ind -REPLICA -RESTART: Database is currently in use by you or another user
06/08/2014 07:15:40   Database compactor deferring  'restart server' for  /home/notes/data/ddm.nsf,   weekly_compact.ind -REPLICA -RESTART

is the server shutting down cleanly ?
It sounds like the restart option is causing the scheduler to think it did not complete.  When the server starts back up it sees that the program document that had to be kicked off never was processed and it runs it again.
This can happen if the server does not shut down cleanly.  For example if you were to set a program doc to kick off at 8 and let the program doc kick off and then run a -nsd -kill when the server is restarted it will end up kicking off the program document again.  
I would check  to see if the server is coming down cleanly or not during the restart.  Do you see a nsd being generated during that time?
