Nothing should ever be auto-started. Ubuntu has it wrong. If you're
going to enable any access to a machine, it should be by design, not by
default.

Following the Fedora Packaging guidelines, services should not be

the packages we provide for different distributions do not enable/start

package enables the service as well.
At least for the packages in the CentOS Storage SIG, we can make this
more automatic of we want to. A nice way to enable services by default
without the need to modify the standard packaging (.spec) files is by
providing a systemd.preset(5) file. This file describes what services
should be enabled when the packages get installed.
There are two items that I would like to get feedback on:
a. Which service should not get autostarted after installation? Think of
services that require configuration, and no usable defaults can be
provided.
b. Where should the systemd.preset file be maintained and packaged?
Ideally it should be part of a centos-release-gluster* RPM so that
the file is present before installing the glusterfs-* RPMs. Should it
still be maintained in the glusterfs repository, or somewhere else?
Note that not all services need to be part of the main glusterfs-*
packages. At least NFS-Ganesha, Heketi, gluster-block have their own
repositories and packages.
Thanks,
Niels
