If vdsm requires rpcbind service it should depend on that service, so when started so that dependencies. I can do this manually in hot-deploy, but I don't think it will be the currect approach. What do you think?

I think that you are right - just like vdsm starts iscsid, it should ensure nfs is started. Note, however, that it would be much nicer if iscid was a soft dependency, to be started only if iscsi-based storage domains are used. I am not sure why this is a TestBlocker, though - it is quite easy to enable rpcbind before installation begins.

Also note that NFS v4 does not require rpcbind
is7. [root@tigris03 init.d]# ./rpcbind status rpcbind (pid 6433) is running... NFS export domain was successfully created and mounted.
