Can anyone explain why asterisk is being launched 7 times?
It isn't launched 7 times. Asterisk is a multi-threaded application and
depending on what modules are active, a new thread will be created. That's
what you see.
The line 'asterisk -vvvg -c' doesn't mean that every thread has it's own
'c'onsole. Just one thread is the console.
So this is absolutly normal.
When, on some systems, do just see one thread/program, then this system
just show the main-thread. This depends on kernel/ps version.

But that doesn't explain why, on the same machine, if you call
"/etc/init.d/asterisk stop"
and then "/etc/init.d/asterisk start", you dont many processes, just one.
Shouldn't this
be consistent with your explanation?
