"kill_harvester_PORTNR.sh / start_harvester_PORTNR.sh" - that was the missing link!
I am using the deploy application and did restart the harvester and the systemstate in the Suite brings the expected message 

"WARNUNG: Found old unprocessed job data in dir 
'/home/netarchive/apps/netarchivesuite/ONB/harvester_7053/40_1241200515810'. 
Crawl probably interrupted by shutdown of HarvestController. Processing 
data"

Thanks for your help!
