Just thinking out loud here - but if I were to do the packaging - I'd probably have a meta-package (perhaps the root cloudstack package) that would require cloudstack-sysdaemons. A person would still be able to 'yum install cloudstack-server and not get those dameons, but the 'default' install (yum install cloudstack) would have SS/CP as a dependency and thus have it installed and started. --David
