But I am curious does the guardian not restart it automagicly? Or does the
guardian even run at all?

As for me the guardian keeps on respawning until forever or until the
problem is fixed. Not that that happens a lot and is usually because the
database is (intentionally) down.

Apart from this we monitor all systems with nagios. Through an event handler
it can also restart services.
