I'm not sure that's the right thing to do, in some cases, the user might chose not to use HTTPD proxy, and use port 8080 & 8443. In this case, we shouldn't depend on httpd, and I'm not sure we can change this property on run time. We can add a check inside the service (not a "true" dependency), but that's highly unconventional. Juan- thoughts? With the SysV scripts used in RHEL there is no way to specify dependencies between servers, other than the start/stop order, and order is not relevant in this case. I think it is the responsibility of the administrator to make sure that the required services are up. She/he needs to know that ovirt-engine needs httpd running, and has to take care of it, like he/she does with the database, with the network, with the filesystems, etc. If this is not clear then we may need to make it crystal clear in the documentation. I have seen other projects doing this kind of checks in their own scripts, for example, RHN Satellite has an additional "rhn-satellite" script that starts/stops/checks all the required services. I think this is not worth in our case.

Other than that it's notes in the install guide Since the main request here is not to start rhev service before httpd starts, this can be implemented using required-start[1].
