1) Do you have every possible service listed in /etc/services running itself? If not, it's a straightforward logical jump that /etc/services doesn't actually control anything.

2) If you're using xinetd to control the service, there's no point starting the service manually. xinetd starts services itself in response to connections on ports, if you have configured it to do so.

3) By turning on the service manually, you're bypassing xinetd. If you're not having xinetd control the service, xinetd isn't relevant at all.

4) To stop the service from starting without xinetd, tell the system's rc system to not start it. How to do this depends on what your system actually is. What is it?

5) Turning on a service manually then wondering why it's running doesn't make a lot of sense, it started because you told it to.

ocf_heartbeat_xinetd

OCF_HEARTBEAT_XINETD(7) 					OCF resource agents					   OCF_HEARTBEAT_XINETD(7)

NAME

       ocf_heartbeat_Xinetd - Manages an Xinetd service

SYNOPSIS

       Xinetd [start | stop | status | monitor | meta-data | validate-all]

DESCRIPTION

       Resource script for Xinetd. It starts/stops services managed by xinetd.

       Note that the xinetd daemon itself must be running: we are not going to start it or stop it ourselves.

       Important: in case the services managed by the cluster are the only ones enabled, you should specify the -stayalive option for xinetd or it
       will exit on Heartbeat stop. Alternatively, you may enable some internal service such as echo.

SUPPORTED PARAMETERS

       service
	   The service name managed by xinetd.	(required, string, no default)

SUPPORTED ACTIONS

       This resource agent supports the following actions (operations):

       start
	   Starts the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s.

       stop
	   Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s.

       restart
	   Suggested minimum timeout: 20s.

       status
	   Performs a status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 10. Suggested interval: 10.

       monitor
	   Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 10. Suggested interval: 10.

       validate-all
	   Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 5.

       meta-data
	   Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5.

EXAMPLE

       The following is an example configuration for a Xinetd resource using the crm(8) shell:

	   primitive p_Xinetd ocf:heartbeat:Xinetd 
	     params 
	       service=string 
	     op monitor depth="0" timeout="10" interval="10"
