[Users] ovirt-node on Gentoo

[Dimitrije Zivkovic]

Hi,

  so, since I'm also migrating my system from OpenRC to systemd - pure
systemd, no OpenRC compatibility, would it be any help to set the condition
that ovirt-node requires systemd? I mean, the question here is ( and I
think it is worth asking it ) is it worth the time and effort to keep
parallel scripts and stuff?
If using systemd means that, for now, init standards are no longer an
issue, maybe that should be the way to go? Setup ovirt-node under systemd
for now and solve init scripts problems later? Is systemd mature enough to
inherit SysV or OpenRC completly? Or am I somehow wrong?
My system is working with systemd quite nice, no obvious problems so far...

PS. Maybe someone could point out what is the minimal set of services
needed to run on ovirt-node system/computer? So just to check if systemd
has needed scripts already...
