I'm afraid there is nothing builtin atm, so you must script your own
stuff.
I'm working on it. I've got all the infrastructure in place to do that.
Just need one more thing -- the ability to test when the engine is
actually operational.
Feel free to vote for this RFE (request for enhancement):
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1166657
maybe we can get some traction, you are like the 5th person
who wants this feature on this ML.
I voted for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1325468 which is a
bug that you added as a reference to 1166657. I've commented in both.
I still haven't given up ;)
I'm actually surprised there isn't an autostart mechanism. I would have
considered that one of the first things to add. But I guess they don't
consider a "startup from scratch" use case.
kind regards
Sven
