Have a look how I handled it for openSUSE/SLES - here we have the same
situatoin.

Yeah, that will be more fun ;(

For openSUSE, we've extended the "old" SysV init scripts like chkconfig
so that they work with systemd as well - thus a "service openstack-nova
restart" gets translated on a systemd system to the "systemctl restart
openstack-nova.service". Does Fedora do some similar or did they throw
out this compatibility?
