Thank you very much for your answers!

Thank you for you detailed explanation.
After I wrote my question I found the misc.etc_dnsmasq_d setting in the pihole.toml but not in the web interface, but could not change my post.
Kudos to the developers, even changing it in the .toml file, pihole noticed the change and added comments in the .toml
As above is calling the
dnsmasq
executable, that only may have worked ifdnsmasq
had been installed next to Pi-hole.
I guess I had dnsmasq installed then.
In my workflow I like to work with the files more than working in the web interface, so I would like to stick with misc.etc_dnsmasq_d=true.
pihole-FTL dnsmasq-test
is very helpful. Thank you again.
For me there is only one open question then: Is there also an equivalent to pihole restartdns
?
For pihole reloadlists
and pihole reloaddns
the docs state
Note: This will NOT re-read any *.conf files
Should I open a new question/thread?
[Edit]: included information from docs about pihole reloadlists
