Do you want to run as client or as server? Clients are run from
NetworkManager (I am running openvpn under F16 that way). And there is
a /lib/systemd/system/openvpn@.service so you have to manually creeate
a /etc/systemd/system/openvpn@<yourconfigname>.service and enable that.
Have a look at the vncserver service file for some details

And, yes, I agree: documentation is pretty thin
